Community 1st Credit Union is pleased to welcome Julie Burtch as the new Branch Manager at the Richmond Avenue location.
Bringing over 16 years of leadership experience in retail management, Burtch most recently served as a District Manager with Goodwill of Central Iowa. Her passion for team development and delivering exceptional service made her a natural fit for C1st as she begins her journey in the credit union industry.
A lifelong Ottumwa resident, Burtch has built her life and raised her family with her husband of 24 years, and together they have four children and three grandchildren. In her free time, she enjoys spending it with her family.
“I’m excited to learn everything I can about the credit union and this new industry,” said Julie Burtch “My goal is to build strong relationships with both our members and staff, and to make our branch a place people truly want to be, where employees are supported, and members receive excellent service.”
“We’re thrilled to welcome Julie as the Branch Manager of our Richmond location”, says Mary Kay Van Gorp, Regional Manager. “With nearly two decades of leadership experience and a true passion for people, she’s a natural fit for our team. Julie brings a strong commitment to exceptional member service and team development, and I’m confident her leadership will bring great energy and momentum to the Richmond branch.”
