We are pleased to announce that Jeannie Beier has joined the team as Director of Lending.
FSWCF has experienced significant growth over the last few years. The Director of Lending is a new role in response to this growth. This senior management position was created to ensure that impact goals of key organizational program initiatives are met, with a focus on delivering loan products and development services to target markets through bank and community partner marketing channels.
“I am excited to join FSWCF and help our communities in Southwest Colorado. We not only provide access to the tools and resources they need to build their small business but we also help them build generational wealth,” said Jeannie Beier.
As Director of Lending, Beier will be responsible for designing and implementing financial products and services that are responsive to target markets; lending production, underwriting and closing, marketing and outreach to target markets, relationship-building with community partners and referral sources and technical assistance advisors.
