Senior Loan Officer
First FarmBank, Sterling, CO, United States
Build relationships. Grow communities. Make an impact where it matters.
At First FarmBank, we don’t just finance operations—we partner with producers, business owners, and families to help them grow, adapt, and succeed for generations. With deep roots in agriculture and rural Colorado, our approach is simple: practical solutions, local decision‑making, and relationships that last.
We’re expanding our lending team in Sterling and are looking for a
relationship‑driven Ag & Commercial Lender
who wants to be part of a bank where your voice matters and your work directly impacts the community.
Why This Role Stands Out
Flexibility in title and scope
– We’re hiring at multiple levels (Loan Officer through SVP) to align with your experience and portfolio
Autonomy + support
– Local decision‑making backed by a strong, collaborative credit culture
True community banking
– You’ll see the direct impact of your work with customers you know
Growth‑oriented environment
– Whether you’re building your career or expanding an established portfolio, we invest in your success
What You’ll Do
Develop and manage a diverse portfolio across
ag, commercial, real estate, and consumer lending
Build lasting relationships with farmers, ranchers, and business owners
Structure and analyze credit with a focus on long‑term success—for both the customer and the bank
Participate in loan discussions and contribute to sound credit decisions
Identify opportunities to deepen relationships through additional bank services
Stay active and visible in the agricultural and local community
What We’re Looking For We’re intentionally open to a wide range of candidates, including:
Experienced lenders with established portfolios
Relationship bankers ready to grow into a lending role
Early‑career professionals or recent grads with ag or financial backgrounds
Helpful experience includes
Background in
Agribusiness, Finance, Accounting, or related field
Knowledge of agricultural and/or commercial lending
NMLS license (or willingness to obtain)
A strong work ethic, curiosity, and commitment to community
$65,000 – $150,500 + , depending on experience and portfolio
Performance‑based incentives
Comprehensive benefits package (health, dental, vision, retirement, PTO, and more)
Why First FarmBank? We’re a growing community bank that believes in doing things the right way—supporting our customers, empowering our team, and strengthening rural communities. Here, you’re not just another lender—you’re a trusted partner and a valued voice.
