Community-Focused Banking with Purpose

Celebrating Inspiring local ladies Making Impact in Our Community

Mary Anne Whittemore
SVP, Commercial Lending Officer at Manasquan Bank

"I began my banking career over 40 years ago as a Credit Analyst after graduating from Mount St. Mary’s University. Over time, I progressed as a Commercial Lender at several large banks.

Thirteen years ago, I joined Manasquan Bank, driven by my goal to work for an organization committed to the community and to stay with them until retirement. That goal is on track.

Manasquan Bank stands out for its strong leadership, customer-first approach, and commitment to the local community. Unlike larger institutions, we focus on helping clients find solutions, not saying "no" to financing requests.

I’m proud to be part of a team that supports the community through sponsorships, volunteering, and donations via the Manasquan Bank Charitable Foundation. The bank has played an active role in recovery efforts after Superstorm Sandy and the pandemic.

Living in the same community I work in, I appreciate the personalized service Manasquan Bank offers, from residential lending to mobile banking. Our branches are welcoming, and our employees are dedicated to providing a refreshing banking experience."

"I am fortunate to have raised my family and live in the community where I work. My family and I embrace the personal service provided by Manasquan Bank. Branches are bright, and welcoming; phone calls are answered; employees are professional and Friendly, and online/mobile banking is nimble. I may be biased, but Manasquan
Bank offers a very refreshing banking experience”
