Numerica names Sandpoint branch manager

SANDPOINT — With construction underway on Numerica’s first branch in Bonner County, the credit union has named Mia Sidell as branch manager of its upcoming Sandpoint-area location.

Numerica serves 25,000 members across North Idaho, including 2,300 members in the Sandpoint and Pend Oreille region.

Sidell brings eight years of financial experience, most recently serving as operations manager for I.B.E.W 26 Federal Credit Union. She is passionate about empowering members and building strong teams.

“Mia’s local roots and leadership background make her an incredible fit for launching our Sandpoint branch,” said Dennis Wagner, Numerica’s vice president of retail experience. “We’re excited to expand our presence in North Idaho as part of our long-term growth plan.”

Slated to open this fall at 200 Bonner Mall Way in Ponderay, the branch will be home to a team of eight employees. It will offer full-service personal and business banking and will be open on Saturdays to better serve the community.

Numerica has completed the demolition phase of the project, and construction is now moving into the next stage. Crews are preparing the site for the installation of underground utilities, including mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.
