HAWTHORNE CREDIT UNION HIRES EMILY JANUS AS BOLINGBROOK BRANCH MANAGER  
 

Hawthorne Credit Union is pleased to welcome Emily Janus as Branch Manager for its Bolingbrook branch, which is located at 267 S. Weber Rd.   Janus, who brings 9 1/2 years of credit union experience from her most recent position as Director of Member Services at Gateway Metro Credit Union in St. Louis, is definitely a "people person" in the best sense of the term.   "I treat people the way I'd like to be treated, and work to find a common bond between the people that I surround myself with...both professionally and personally," said Emily, who recently achieved her Trainer Certification for CUNA"s Business Development Sales Training - Systems I & II.   "It's motivating to me to see my team at the Bolingbrook branch of Hawthorne CU do well and know that I am able to help them achieve their goals."

In her new role as Bolingbrook Branch Manager, Janus is responsible for making sure Hawthorne CU's branch remains in compliance with financial industry standards... as well as being a visible part of the community it serves.  "I believe in planning ahead, dedicating myself to an effort and sticking to it," said Emily, who looks forward to getting more involved in the Bolingbrook community and building our membership in the Bolingbrook area.
