Why Work at The Island

Check out the top five reasons why you should join the Island Team and help our members achieve their financial dreams.

 
 
  1. Award Winning Organization
    The Island's commitment to our employees and members has repeatedly been recognized for excellence. Here's a sampling of recent rewards we have received:
    • Best Small & Medium Companies to Work for in America, selected by the Great Place to Work Institute.
    • Award for Workplace Excellence sponsored by Peter Barron Stark & Associates.
    • Leaders in Work-Life Award, sponsored by the Work-Life Coalition of San Diego.
  2. Industry Leading Benefits
    North Island is committed to being an industry leader in employee benefits. Besides the traditional medical and 401(k) plans, The Island offers a wide range of health, wellness, career, and leisure benefits.
     
  3. Happy Employees
    Periodically, we ask our employees through a comprehensive survey how they feel about working at The Island. Satisfaction scores are consistently in the 90th percentile. Here's a sample of what our employees have to say:

    "I enjoy fun and I enjoy people. At the Island we work hard and have fun. The company has so many ways to say thanks and show their gratitude for the work we do."

    We also put our money where our principles are, recognizing an Employee of the Month and Employee of the Year with cash awards and time off. Recipients are nominated by their manager and peers.
     
  4. Fun Environment
    What other financial institution has surfboards in branches, friendly staff wearing Hawaiian shirts, and cool Island Paradise artwork depicting 50 local attractions? While we take our members' finances very seriously, we also strive to provide an easy, worry free environment that's less sterile than a typical bank. Since North Island is a non-profit organization owned by our members - and not shareholders - there is no conflict between profit and service.
  5. Career and Training Development
    We value our employees and encourage their professional and personal growth. Our Island University offers the best certification classes from teller training, customer service and financial service skills, to manager trainee programs. Our environment recognizes the potential in each employee and provides them the support and training to be successful and deliver outstanding service.
