Job Description

In 1954, the Chattanooga DuPont Plant was one of southeast Tennessee’s largest employers, hiring people from all over the tri-state region. Some of these people saw the need for a different kind of financial institution – one that could meet the financial needs of all its employees, including those with more limited means. Recognizing that credit unions embraced the philosophy of “people helping people,” the wheels were set in motion. On February 26, 1954, the Chattanooga DuPont Nylon Employees Credit Union was organized and chartered.

Since then, many changes have shaped Scenic Community Credit Union into the strong financial institution it is today. Mergers and expansions have allowed us to serve a larger group of people better than ever before. But our philosophy is the same as that of the original founders: we strive to advance financial peace of mind within our community.

At Scenic Community Credit Union, we know you're more than just a number. We know the important numbers that matter most; the ones that tell your story! From starting your financial journey, to planning for your first home and reaching your family's financial goals. We're here to celebrate your story not just your balance.
