Celebrating 75 years in business, Metairie Bank has become a Rock-Solid institution by enriching the communities it serves. Since its establishment on February 15, 1947, the bank has focused exclusively on delivering its customers’ products and services. This focus has made them a consumer favorite, reflected by its title of “Best Bank” in New Orleans in the CityBusiness 2022 Reader Rankings contest.
Metairie Bank believes in helping to strengthen our communities and making them better places to live. Through its philanthropic outreach and social service, Metairie Bank has provided needed resources to worthwhile causes like Each One Save One, Junior Achievement, Youth Service Bureau, Jefferson Beautification Inc., American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, Children’s Hospital, Crime Stoppers, Jefferson Dollars for Scholars, St Tammany Health System, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the Black Chamber of Commerce, and the Jefferson Chamber of Commerce. In addition, the St. Tammany Health System honored the financial institution by dedicating its Pediatric Exam Room to the children and families on the Northshore on behalf of Metairie Bank.
One hundred twenty employees represent the bank throughout its nine branch locations; seven in the East Bank of Jefferson Parish and two in St. Tammany. Metairie Bank serves residents in these parishes and residents of Orleans, St. Charles, St. Bernard, and St. John parishes.
Metairie Bank provides an outstanding work-life balance for its employees and a family-oriented workplace. It has received recognition as New Orleans’ Top Places to Work in 2015, 2018, 2020, and 2021 by the Times-Picayune/The Advocate/NOLA.com.
In an era where bigger isn’t always better, and high-tech doesn’t necessarily equate to high touch, Metairie Bank pledges never to lose sight of the personalized service customers expect. Providing Personal Service has been integral to their success for over 75 years, and that’s how their legacy will continue.
Metairie Bank is committed to serving the Latino community in Greater New Orleans by providing bilingual staff to connect with their Spanish-speaking clients. They are looking to add more bilingual members to the team. Visit a branch, or go online to metairiebank.com to apply.
