About Encompass Credit Union Ltd.
Encompass Credit Union provides a rewarding and challenging career environment that balances the needs of employees with the goals of the organization. We employ over 50 energetic, highly skilled, service-oriented staff in six different locations. We help employees reach their goals and achieve self-fulfillment.
Encompass Credit Union - Who are we?
We are a Credit Union. A credit union is a member-owned financial cooperative, controlled by its members and operated on the principle of people helping people; providing its members credit at competitive rates and high quality service for all of their financial needs. And for those members who prefer to do things on their own time, we have the technology they need to do everything from home; even account openings, loans, and investments!

As a not-for-profit organization, we take pride in our communities and see the benefits of giving back through grants, scholarships and community project funding. Our profits are given back to our members each fiscal year. We also value community involvement and actively participate in various local fundraisers and charity events throughout the year. We make a difference in the world around us.

The deposits of Encompass Credit Union members are 100% guaranteed by the Credit Union Deposit Guarantee Corporation and the province of Alberta. The corporation provides this deposit guarantee for all Alberta Credit Unions and provides solid regulatory oversight to ensure a safe and sound credit union system in Alberta.

The Wainwright and District Savings and Credit Union Ltd. charter was signed on April 2, 1943 with 38 members and $12 in assets. Since then, we have experienced incredible growth and expansion (and a couple of name changes) and today Encompass Credit Union has approximately 8500 members and $500 million in assets.
