Want to volunteer and make a difference in your community and credit union?

Sentinel Federal Credit Union, a member owned, not-for-profit financial cooperative dedicated to serving its communities, invites you to apply for a position on the Supervisory Committee.

The Supervisory Committee is responsible for ensuring the Board of Directors and management of the Credit Union meet required financial reporting objectives and establish practices and procedures sufficient to safeguard members’ assets. The Committee ensures Sentinel FCU’s accounting records and financial reports are promptly prepared and accurately reflect operations. These reports need to confirm policies and control procedures are sufficiently safeguarded against error, conflict of interest, self-dealing, and fraud. To assist in performing the responsibilities, the Committee supervises clerical and auditing personnel.

We are seeking applicants with strong leadership skills as well as business skills in either audit, risk management, business finance, and/or legal compliance. Committee candidates must have the ability to understand and analyze financial statements, communicate with audit personnel regarding the audit function, and express opinions succinctly. An effective Committee member must have a passion for learning about the ever-changing financial institution industry.

Elected persons will be responsible for attending regular Supervisory Committee meetings, monthly Board of Director’s meetings, periodically attending Sentinel FCU’s events, and completing continuing education requirements depending on selected position.

Over the last 67 years, we have aspired to grow with our communities and protect the financial future of our members. Just like a sentinel. Our story is one of shared values and shared community spirit. We welcome you to come be part of what it means to belong at SFCU.

To be considered for a Supervisory Committee position, the candidate must, in addition to the understanding noted above:

  • Be a member of Sentinel Federal Credit Union, or willing, able and qualify to become a member.
  • Be at least 18 years of age.
  • Not be a current or past (over the previous three years) Sentinel Federal Credit Union employee or employee family member.

    What Our Members Say About Us

    “I have been using Sentinel for almost 30 years, and my family has been just as long! I purposely make the extra drive to the Radar Hill Branch with Nate working there! Not only has he always been on the ball of my personal account, but my business account! He has resolved issues with other banks in a timely manner when he didn’t have to! Every time I go on he always has a smiling face and is easy to work with.”

    “If you’re in the Rapid City area and you’re looking to drop the elbow off the top rope, Macho Man style, then look to Sentinel Federal Credit Union! Their customer service is off the hook and when you call you never get a robot or an automated answering machine! I don’t think I’ll trust another big bank with my money for as long as I live! By the way, I don’t even live in South Dakota!”

    “We have several credit unions that got lost in the mix during a move–our bad. However, out of all of those credit unions, SFCU went OUT OF THEIR WAY to ensure we knew our account was dormant and helped us through the process of getting the account back on track. They also refunded every fee taken for dormant status. After losing more money than I’d like to admit from other institutions, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the customer service of Sentinel FCU.”
