About The Position

Wells Fargo is seeking a Senior Branch Premier Banker (SAFE) for its National Branch Network. The role builds, deepens, and manages relationships with affluent customers and customers with complex financial needs, serving as their primary point of contact for banking products and services through scheduled appointments, lobby engagement, and proactive outreach. The banker owns and grows a defined book of business, uses goals-based planning and prudent risk oversight, and delivers integrated solutions across deposits, investments, credit, home lending, and business banking. The role also supports everyday banking needs, including opening accounts and handling service requests. Success depends on strong relationship skills, proactive customer engagement, and collaboration with Wealth, Home Lending, and Business Banking partners. Wells Fargo provides digital tools, training, and ongoing coaching. The Senior Branch Premier Banker LP (license pending) role is temporary until licensing requirements and SAFE registration are completed; employees then transition to the Senior Branch Premier Banker (SAFE) role. Employees who are not fully licensed participate in the Branch Network Licensed Banker program. The role requires working a schedule that includes most Saturdays. FINRA Series 6 and Series 63 (or recognized equivalents) and state insurance licenses must be active or completed within a designated timeframe; additional requirements apply in certain states. SAFE registration is required at employment, and Wells Fargo initiates the registration process after the start date. Continued employment requires obtaining and maintaining required FINRA licenses. The role also requires meeting enhanced financial fitness and criminal background standards. Loan originators must meet applicable LO/CFPB requirements and Wells Fargo policies.
