PENSACOLA, FL (February 6, 2009) – Navy Federal Credit Union, the nation’s largest credit union, announced the expansion of its Heritage Oaks campus on West Nine Mile Road in Pensacola, Florida. The expansion is expected to create 43 new jobs by the end of March, adding to Navy Federals’ presence, with more than 1,200 employees.

Navy Federal hired 17 new employees in January 2009 after opening its third Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) building. The eco-friendly campus offers lifestyle benefits such as an on-site fitness center and a healthy foods-oriented cafeteria.

“We’re proud to be creating new jobs in this time of economic uncertainty,” explains Cutler Dawson, President and CEO. “Navy Federal remains strong and well-capitalized. The Greater Pensacola area has a robust pool of talented people whose skill set and productivity is unmatched.”

As part of this expansion, Navy Federal is now hiring energetic, motivated candidates to work in the Contact Center, Collections and Facilities Management. The planned job opportunities are ideal for candidates with a strong desire to provide extraordinary customer service to members and employees.

“With competitive starting salaries and a higher than average retention rate, Navy Federal offers employees a career, not just a job,” said Debbie Calder, Senior Vice President of Greater Pensacola. “We offer a career with stability and the opportunity to learn, develop and grow with us.”

Headquartered outside Washington, D.C., Navy Federal was named to Fortune Magazine’s list of America’s top 100 employers and Training magazine’s Training Top 25 in 2008. Applications can be submitted online at navyfederal.org/careers/.
