Careers

Let's Grow Together

If you have an entrepreneurial spirit and want to be a part of an emerging high-performing institution, you’ve come to the right place. We’re building a culture where remarkable people can do their best work and partner with clients to help them build their best lives and legacies.

Who is First Western?

We are a regional wealth manager built on a private trust bank platform, offering customized solutions and high-touch service.

Our First Westerners are referred to as Associates, rather than employees, because we believe we’re all connected in working towards our common mission: to be the best private bank for the western wealth management client. To us, that means we are great for all of our stakeholders: Associates, Clients, Shareholders, and Communities.

We serve our internal team with the same approach we serve our clients, with an adaptive, entrepreneurial spirit. We take advantage of new opportunities and encourage our team to explore new processes, products and services to improve the “First Western Way”.

What Our Associates Say

“The levels of communication and coordination here at FW eclipse that of my previous employers. On my first day, I was already working on a task because the onboarding was seamless. I feel cared about, rewarded, and trusted with challenging and important tasks. While I have only been here a short time, I believe this is going to shape into the best employment I have ever held (and I have worked for an amazing family business run by my father).”
