May 7, 2025 | Employee Spotlights, Featured, General News

Since joining Guthrie County State Bank in 2015, Matt Pearey has been dedicated to helping customers achieve their financial goals. As Relationship Manager at the Guthrie Center branch, he works closely with individuals and small businesses, offering personalized solutions that make a meaningful impact.

A Career Built on Relationships
Matt’s passion for banking started during his six years at a larger financial institution, where he developed a strong foundation in consumer lending and mortgage services. He began his career in the banking sector after graduating from Buena Vista University, holding roles as a Sales Specialist, Home Mortgage Consultant, and Consumer Loan Underwriter before transitioning to GCSB. Happily, the move allowed him to return to the community he calls home and build relationships with local businesses and families.

More Than Just Banking
For Matt, the best part of working here is the strong sense of community. “I appreciate the bank’s strong reputation for community involvement and commitment to customer service,” he says. “I admire how GCSB has been a trusted institution in the community for so long and how it emphasizes building long-term relationships with customers.”

Outside the Office
When he’s not working with customers, you’ll likely find Matt on the golf course, one of his favorite pastimes. He enjoys spending time with family and friends, and Lake Panorama National Golf Course is one of his go-to spots in Guthrie County.

Matt’s commitment to his customers and community makes him an essential part of the GCSB team. Be sure to say hello next time you see him at the Guthrie Center branch— or maybe even on the golf course!
