“Regions Bank deeply values the experiences and insights that military spouses, service members and veterans bring to our country, our communities and our company,” said Clara Green, head of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for Regions. “Our company is made stronger by the integrity, skills and talents of associates who come from military backgrounds and military families. These colleagues represent various departments across the bank; what they all have in common is an unwavering commitment to excellence and a passion for quality service. It is our honor to provide career opportunities – and a workplace culture that truly values their experiences.”
