Newport, OR – Oregon Coast Bank (OCB) is pleased to announce the promotion of Patti Eisler to Vice President Human Resources Manager..
Eisler’s banking career began where many do, as a teller, and grew steadily into branch management before finding a new calling in human resources. She joined OCB five years ago and has spent the past two and a half years on the HR team, most recently serving as AVP of Human Resources.
Her roots in branch operations have proven to be an asset in her HR work, giving her a ground-level understanding of the bank’s people, culture, and day-to-day needs. “Having spent the majority of my banking career in branch management, transitioning into Human Resources felt like a natural evolution,” she said.
In her new role, Eisler will take on broader strategic responsibilities, supporting employees, strengthening organizational development, and ensuring HR initiatives continue to align with the bank’s larger goals. It’s work that fits naturally with who she is.
A long-time Newport resident, Eisler grew up watching her father work as a commercial fisherman and her mother serve in healthcare, and she says those early lessons in community service have stayed with her. “Our customers are never just numbers. They know us, and we know them. That personal connection, rooted in genuine care, is what makes OCB special,” she said.
Oregon Coast Bank is the only bank built by and for people on the coast. It was founded when 115 coastal families pooled their resources to establish a locally owned and operated bank; its assets now exceed $400 million. For decades, OCB has been dedicated to keeping dollars local and helping coastal businesses thrive.
