Jody Clark didn't intend to have a lifelong career in banking. But the job she took as a teller in college quickly turned into a series of promotions that culminated in a district manager role in the Cincinnati area. Clark loved the position and thought she found her dream job.

Clark is senior vice president in the U.S. Bank Investment Advisor Services (IAS) Division within Global Fund Services, overseeing business development, relationship management, onboarding of new advisors and sales support.

With the birth of her first child, however, Clark wanted to be home full-time to focus on raising her family. She dabbled in a few other areas before returning to banking when the youngest of her four children started elementary school.

And that's when her career truly took off.

Today, Clark is senior vice president in the U.S. Bank Investment Advisor Services (IAS) Division within Global Fund Services, overseeing business development, relationship management, onboarding of new advisors, and sales support. Her team works with over 340 registered investment advisors across the country to provide custody services, such as settlement, safekeeping and reporting of marketable securities and cash, for their clients.

"Anything revenue, I'm responsible for," she said.

Clark has worked in IAS since 2012, when the group was created, and she has helped make sure it's been on a fast track for growth ever since.

"Jody has been the lead new revenue generator every year she's been in a sales role and now she's doing a terrific job managing the other members of our front office team." says Jay Martin, president of Global Fund Services. "She has a great sales skill set and the perfect mindset to lead growth initiatives in a business that often feels like a startup even though it's part of massive financial enterprise."

Clark agreed: "With IAS being a new division when I started and now a decade plus with tremendous growth, we've been able to mold and create things as we go. Having an entrepreneurial mindset is so important and our management team has embraced that."

Clark credited the success of IAS, and her own career, to the team she works with and the strength of her relationships within U.S. Bank and with her advisors.

"When I talk to our current and prospective advisors, I strive to be transparent and honest," she said. "I work for a fantastic, strong and ethical company, and I always lead with that. It's important to listen and learn from your clients before sharing what we can offer. Building a relationship of trust is the most important piece, and I'm blessed to be supported by a wonderful team that also shares that philosophy."
