Member Experience Specialist III (Greenwood, SC)
At Parda, we're committed to serving our members, supporting our communities, and creating an environment where employees can thrive. Our culture is built on teamwork, professionalism, innovation, and a genuine commitment to delivering exceptional member service.
We are currently seeking a Member Experience Specialist III to join our Greenwood branch. This role is ideal for an experienced financial services professional who is passionate about helping members achieve their financial goals through lending solutions, relationship building, and exceptional service.
We recognize that applicants come from a variety of financial services backgrounds. While consumer lending experience is preferred, we also welcome candidates with banking, credit union, or other financial services experience who have strong member service and relationship-building skills and are eager to learn. Parda is committed to developing talented employees and will provide training for the right candidate.
If you enjoy working directly with members, uncovering financial needs, and providing solutions that make a meaningful impact, we encourage you to apply.
What You'll Do
As a Member Experience Specialist III, you'll serve as a trusted financial partner for our members by originating consumer loans, identifying opportunities to improve members' financial well-being, and delivering outstanding service.
Responsibilities include:
- Interviewing loan applicants to assess financial needs and identify appropriate lending solutions.
- Gathering and evaluating financial information to make sound lending decisions within established guidelines.
- Processing consumer loans accurately and efficiently.
- Explaining loan terms, conditions, and documentation requirements to members.

- Resolving member concerns professionally, accurately, and in a timely manner.
- Maintaining accurate member records while ensuring confidentiality and compliance with all policies and regulations.
- Contributing to branch and lending goals through teamwork, relationship-building, and member service.
What We're Looking For
We value attitude, work ethic, and a passion for helping others as much as experience. The ideal candidate will have consumer lending experience, but we are equally interested in motivated banking and credit union professionals who have a passion for helping members and are ready to expand their knowledge into lending. If you have a strong service mindset, sales aptitude, and a willingness to learn, we encourage you to apply.
Qualifications:
- High school diploma or GED required; additional coursework in business, finance, or a related field is preferred.
- Consumer lending experience preferred; banking, credit union, or other financial services experience strongly considered.
- Experience building member relationships, identifying financial needs, and recommending appropriate products and services.
- Experience interviewing loan applicants and evaluating lending opportunities is preferred but not required.
- Demonstrated ability to learn new products, regulations, systems, and processes.
- A desire to develop lending expertise and build a career in financial services.
- Excellent communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
- Ability to work independently while contributing positively to a team environment.
- High level of professionalism, accuracy, attention to detail, and discretion.
