I vote teller supervisor too, I would hate a sales type position. It’s fine if the business comes to you and you just need to make clients happy, but if you are expected to cold call and drum up new business, no thanks! The supervisor position sounds challenging without being too draining. Let us know what you decide.

Sorry to hear your position is going to disappear after the merger. Best of luck to you–hard work always pays off.

I would go for the teller supervisor position as well. I’m all for following your bliss, but I think it’s unrealistic to expect that ANY job would make you “happy all day, every day.” And it seems like that position would give you the opportunity to develop new, useful skills – to step up and become a leader.

I would do the teller supervisor. I have to do our company banking every week on Thursday. I see a lot of tellers and supervisors. I think if your only issue is the coaching part, why not buy at least two books (or check out from the library) books on supervising/coaching? Practice makes perfect. Are you in a position now to observe the teller supervisors or are you friends with one that you could ask for some pointers? I wouldn’t suggest getting a new job, because it seems like your chances are better of being employed by staying, plus you like having your seniority. Besides, I don’t like going to brand new jobs, so I wouldn’t suggest going to a new and different bank. ;-)
