A new partnership is leading to employment opportunities for military spouses across the United States.

PenFed Credit Union and Triple Impact Connections, a veteran-owned communications solutions firm, have teamed up to establish 60 PenFed member service representative roles, including remote positions.

“We will continue to look to the outstanding talent pool of military spouses as our team of financial professionals scales up to provide exceptional service to our growing number of members,” said PenFed Credit Union President/CEO and PenFed Foundation CEO James Schenck.

With the aid of Triple Impact’s training program, the military spouses will learn to deliver member services by answering incoming calls, providing account and product information while performing account transactions and maintenance.

These positions will also be responsible for educating members on a wide variety of products and services and making recommendations for each member's financial needs.

In addition to the Triple Impact partnership, PenFed collaborates with the Military Spouse Employment Partnership (MSEP) and the U.S. Chamber's Hiring Our Heroes' Military Spouse Employment Program, to enhance employment efforts within the military spouse community.

PenFed also adopted a policy that encourages the retention of military spouses when they move that allows for transfers or remote work opportunities.
