DALLAS -- As part of its plan to hire over 1,000 new small business bankers across the nation, Bank of America today announced that it will hire nearly 100 small business bankers in Texas - including Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio - by the end of first quarter 2012. The Dallas-Fort Worth region was among the first three markets in the country to begin hiring Bank of America small business bankers, and more than 75 bankers have already been hired throughout the state.
Through a relationship with a Bank of America small business banker, customers will have convenient access to local small business expertise and a dedicated resource who knows their business. Small business bankers will consult with small business owners at their place of business and assess their companies' deposit, credit and cash management needs.
"Bank of America is changing the way we do business with small business owners so we can more acutely address the complex financial issues they face each day," said Anna Colton, small business banker national sales executive for Bank of America. "Our small business customers want a banking relationship that meets them where they are, providing solutions that are tailored for their business. This hiring effort addresses their needs head on by bringing the banking experience to our small business customers' place of business and by providing them with solutions to manage their money more efficiently and effectively."
Across the state of Texas, 96 percent of all businesses are small businesses with less than 100 employees, employing approximately one third of the state's workforce, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In Dallas alone, nearly 80 percent of the city's businesses are small businesses, employing close to 40 percent of the city's workforce, according to the City of Dallas Office
