In this position, Flanders will continue to oversee organization-wide training and development for all employees of NHMB and its subsidiaries: Meredith Village Savings Bank (MVSB), Merrimack County Savings Bank (the Merrimack) and MillRiver Wealth Management.

It’s exciting to be able to promote her in this new role where she can further expand her talents.”

Flanders joined Meredith Village Savings Bank in 1992 as a part-time teller for the Route 104 Office. As her career progressed, she served several roles including Customer Service, Sales Administration and Trainer. In 2010, Flanders was promoted to Learning and Development Officer for Meredith Village Savings Bank, and expanded her role when MVSB and the Merrimack formed their alliance in 2013.

She has been a regular volunteer for the Children’s Auction for the Greater Lakes Region and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.

New Hampshire Mutual Bancorp, a mutual holding company, was formed in 2013 when two New Hampshire-based community banks, Meredith Village Savings Bank and Merrimack County Savings Bank, formally affiliated – the first relationship of its kind in New Hampshire. This strategic partnership has positioned the Banks to leverage each other’s strengths as they work together to advance a shared vision of maintaining and enhancing their community banking standards and values. MillRiver Wealth Management joined as a third subsidiary of NHMB in 2015, combining the financial advisory divisions of MVSB and The Merrimack. NHMB combined assets total nearly $1.5 billion.
