Jim Baker

Position

Relationship Development Officer

Responsibilities

I currently work out of our Knoxville location cultivating new banking connections and maintaining existing relationships. I work to help our local community members achieve financial growth though a wide range of loan and deposit solutions.

Education

I've completed several continuing education courses through the Iowa Bankers Assocation, including IBA Commercial Lending School and IBA Ag Lending School.

Why I love working at Leighton State Bank

Working with LSB has given me the opportunity to walk side-by-side with our customers to help them reach their goals—from affording the car they've always wanted to financing their new business venture. It’s a pleasure to work with both our team at LSB and the people in our communities.

Favorite way LSB gives back

LSB is committed to being a part of our communities and has shown their support by allowing us to serve in so many ways, from volunteering with several area organizations to supporting our local schools.

Hobbies/Family

I love spending time with my wife and our four wonderful children. Our interests include camping, going to Hawkeye games, and family vacations. I also enjoy giving back through local groups including 100 Men on a Mission Red Rock, Knoxville Noon Kiwanis, Knoxville Chamber Board of Directors, Knoxville Education Foundation and serving on the Marion County Fair Board.
