Five Star Bank announced that it has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2023 honor by The Buffalo News Top Workplaces. The company attributes this accolade to their H.E.A.R.T. values and a focus on the employee experience.
 
Winners are determined through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner, Energage LLC. The confidential survey uniquely measures 15 culture drivers that are critical to the success of any organization: including alignment, execution, connection, and more.
 
Five Star Bank’s vision is to be an independent, high-performing community bank, offering bold and innovative financial services to the markets it serves. The Bank’s core values encourage all employees to be Humble, Empowered, Ambitious, Resilient, and Transparent. These elements support the Bank’s corporate strategy and provides clarity on its culture and goals.

“At Five Star Bank, we keep people at the heart of everything we do, which includes our team, our customers and our communities,” said Five Star Bank President and CEO Martin K. Birmingham. “We are focused on creating a culture where everyone feels welcomed, valued and respected, and I am proud of this Top Workplaces award.”
