Employment

Financial Specialist

My primary objective was to work with our everyday banking clients and to assist in transitioning those with an investment need to the appropriately recommended product or service. During this transition I would meet with them to discuss their needs and financial well-being. I worked with other financial advisors within PNC to assist me with clients that have greater investable assets. In addition, I coach the teller team and personal bankers on how to uncover and listen for prospects during their daily interactions. I managed my calendar coordinating with partners when needed, as well as all of the administrative work that my client interactions created.

I worked with existing clients as well as new clients gathered from referrals and leads through working community events. I planned each of my sales appointments and managed my calendar while creating and following a monthly business plan.
