National Cooperative Bank (NCB) – Overview

Headquarters: Arlington, VA (Crystal City)
Assets: $4 billion
Offices: Arlington, VA | Hillsboro, OH
National Reach: Serving clients across all 50 states

National Cooperative Bank (NCB) is a mission-driven commercial bank dedicated to advancing community development and supporting the growth of cooperatives and socially responsible enterprises. NCB is the only U.S. bank with a specialized focus on cooperative businesses, and it stands as the nation’s leading lender for housing cooperatives.

Through tailored financial products and expert advisory services, NCB supports key sectors critical to community resilience, including:

• Renewable Energy
• Healthcare
• Community Associations
• Credit Unions
• Small Business
• Non-Profits and Social Enterprises
• Alaska and Native Corporations
• Food and Hardware Retailers

NCB’s Professional Development Program (PDP) is a highly selective, 12-month rotational training initiative designed to develop future leaders in banking and finance. The program targets high-performing recent graduates—primarily Finance majors—with a strong interest in credit analysis, relationship management, and socially impactful finance.

• Comprehensive training in credit analysis and risk management
• Exposure to banking products, financial services, and capital markets
• Hands‑on experience with cooperative lending practices
• Personalized development plans, regular feedback, and mentorship
• Opportunities for career placement in specialized departments post‑completion

• 12-month rotational program with quarterly department changes
• Core rotations may include:
  • Capital Markets
  • Underwriting
  • Finance/Accounting/Treasury
  • Loan Operations
• Formal classroom training and real‑world deal exposure
• Potential travel for client due diligence and training sessions

• Bachelor’s degree in finance required
• Minimum GPA 3.0 required
• Must be analytical, have sharp attention to detail, and good interpersonal skills
• Must be proficient in Excel
• Must have general knowledge of Microsoft Office Products

✅
Why It Stands Out:

• Unique exposure to mission-based finance
• Experience across a range of high-impact industries
• Small cohort size for individualized mentoring and career coaching
• Pathway into a purpose-driven career in cooperative and community finance
