Director of Communications and Media Relations, 717 Credit Union
717 Credit Union puts people – not only our employees but our members – at the center of everything we do.
We offer a comprehensive benefits package, a secure and clean work environment and the flexibility and stability employees need to build long-term, meaningful careers.
Many of our team members have been with us for decades, a testament to the respect, pride and sense of belonging they experience here.
We celebrate our employees often, with events like our winter celebration where we award our annual Employee and Volunteer of the Year. 717 holds frequent morale-boosting get-togethers, including ice cream socials, Food Truck Fridays and our employee picnic at the Scrappers game.
Friendly traditions — such as our soup cook-off benefiting Relay for Life and Jeans Friday fundraisers — bring us together while supporting important causes.
Community support is part of our culture. Our employees are generous and community-oriented, participating in angel tree drives, blood drives and major fundraising efforts for organizations like United Way of Trumbull County.
We volunteer across the Valley, donate to local programs, award college scholarships and teach financial wellness in area schools. Our partnerships with Youngstown State University, Kent State University and other institutions help us stay deeply connected to the community we serve.
Headquartered and rooted in Warren with branches across the Valley, we are proud to be expanding – not leaving – and serving as a beacon of stability and opportunity. At 717, employees feel valued, supported and proud of the impact they make every day – making it a truly great place to work.
