BECU to Open New Neighborhood Financial Centers on Bainbridge Island and in Duvall, Wash.

BECU has announced plans to open new Neighborhood Financial Centers (NFCs) on Bainbridge Island and in Duvall, Wash., joining other recently opened locations in Pierce County, White Center, and Spokane. Additionally, in 2025, BECU will open future NFCs in Kirkland and Stanwood in the fall.

“Our new NFCs in Bainbridge and Duvall will be our first locations in these communities, making it easier than ever for our members to access in-person financial services,” shared Jason Rudman, BECU’s Chief Member and Digital Experience Officer. “This includes one-on-one support for opening new accounts, loans and mortgages, and investments and trust services. Beyond assisting our members, we also invest deeply in the communities we serve and look forward to building partnerships with nonprofits in these areas.”

Bainbridge Island NFC

The 1,300-square-foot Bainbridge Island NFC will bring in-person and digital services, like Video Banking, to the credit union’s nearly 2,000 members in the area. The NFC is BECU’s first location on Bainbridge Island — and the community’s only credit union branch — with the nearest location 35 miles away in Silverdale.

Despite not having a location in the area, BECU has hosted employee Purpose Workshops at IslandWood since 2023. The facility’s design, along with Bainbridge Island’s natural scenery, serves as an inspiring location for employees to connect and lean into the credit union’s community-centered purpose.

Duvall NFC

The 3,000-square-foot Duvall NFC marks BECU’s first location in the Snoqualmie Valley, with the nearest locations currently 10 miles away in Monroe and nine miles away in Redmond. With more than 4,200 members in the community, the Duvall NFC will offer in-person support and Video Banking for on-demand services.

BECU expects to hire six employees at each of its new locations.
