President/CEO

Are We the Place for You?
East County Schools Federal Credit Union (ECSFCU), serving over 4,600 members since 1956, supports school district employees and their families in San Diego County. Located in El Cajon, California, ECSFCU combines personalized, high-touch service with a commitment to its mission and values. As we approach a new chapter, the Board of Directors seeks a forward-thinking President/CEO to succeed our retiring leader and guide the credit union in a competitive, digitally evolving landscape.

With nearly $150 million in assets, ECSFCU demonstrates financial stability and resilience. These achievements reflect our focus on personalized service and the collaborative efforts of our dedicated team of 15 employees. Guided by the mission of "providing financial solutions uniquely tailored to our education community and delivered with a genuine focus on value, trust, and exceptional service," we embrace fairness, innovation, and member-centric strategies.

Located in El Cajon, ECSFCU is less than 20 miles to downtown San Diego and the beautiful Pacific Ocean. Offering a family-friendly community, a slower pace of life, and more affordable housing, El Cajon is an excellent alternative to city living, offering easy access to both downtown and extensive outdoor activities.

Is This the Career for You?
The ECSFCU President/CEO will inspire our team to align with the credit union’s mission, maintain a culture of exceptional member service, and uphold the importance of a supportive employee environment.

Building off our history of positive ROA and leveraging our net worth of nearly 9%, our President/CEO will help the credit union grow in membership, assets, and impact in how we serve our members and our school community. A goal-, and action-oriented leader will identify key performance indicators, track these, and report back to the Board to keep our strategic plan on track.
