Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering with MountainCrest Credit Union is a meaningful opportunity to help shape the future of our credit union and strengthen the communities we serve. We are looking for dedicated members who are interested in sharing their time, skills, and expertise to support the continued success of MountainCrest Credit Union.
From time to time, volunteer opportunities may be available within the credit union's governance structure, including positions on the Board of Directors or Supervisory Committee. We also offer Associate Director positions, providing members with an opportunity to learn more about credit union governance, gain valuable experience, and explore whether serving on the Board of Directors or Supervisory Committee is the right fit for them.
These volunteer roles provide members with an opportunity to contribute to the direction and oversight of the credit union while helping ensure we continue to fulfill our mission of serving our members as their trusted home for financial success.

We welcome members who are committed to the success of MountainCrest and are willing to contribute their time, knowledge, and perspective. Experience in areas such as finance, accounting, business, leadership, technology, legal services, or other relevant fields may be valuable, but a strong commitment to our members and our credit union is equally important.
The Board of Directors provides leadership and oversight to help guide the strategic direction of MountainCrest Credit Union. Board volunteers play an important role in:
• Strategic Leadership & Planning – Setting the credit union’s long-term goals, mission & vision
• CEO Oversight – Hiring, evaluating and setting compensation for the President/CEO
• Policies – Establishing policies for oversight of credit union operations
• Financial Oversight – Reviewing financial statements, approving budget & monitoring capital
• Risk Management – Ensuring adequate internal controls and regulatory compliance
The Supervisory Committee provides an important oversight function, helping ensure the credit union's operations and financial practices are conducted safely, accurately, and in the best interests of our members. Committee volunteers may assist with:
• Financial Oversight – Oversee the annual audit to ensure accuracy of financial statements
• Audit Planning – Oversee the internal audit plan and monitor the progress of recommendations made
• Internal Controls – Monitor internal controls and any conflicts of interest within the credit union
• Member Relations – Responsible for reviewing and resolving member complaints or discrepancies
• Regulatory Compliance – Ensure compliance with all federal and state regulations and internal policies
An Associate Director is a volunteer role designed to provide members with hands-on exposure to credit union governance, strategy, and operations while developing future volunteer leaders. As non-voting participants, Associate Directors contribute to discussions, committees, and strategic initiatives while gaining firsthand experience and preparing for potential future service as a Board Director or Supervisory Committee Member. Expectations for an Associate Director:
• Attend and actively participate in regular Board meetings
• Review Board materials in advance and come prepared for discussions
• Participate in training sessions, workshops, and orientation opportunities
• Maintain strict confidentiality of all Credit Union and member information
• Provide feedback and insights when appropriate
