From professional figure skater and sports coach to sales manager at CIT, Britni Maine’s unique background and experiences have greatly influenced her leadership and success. 

Throughout her career at CIT, Maine has earned the respect and trust of colleagues and clients with her high level of integrity and sales expertise. She is among the top sales professionals in the organization and is focused on growing vendor relationships as well as her role leading a new sales segment.

“Britni has an unrivaled passion for supporting her customers through creative solutions. Our customers see her as an extension of their team,” Ken Martin, managing director of CIT’s small business solutions group, says. “As a prior business owner herself, she brings a valuable perspective in understanding customer needs and expectations.”

In addition to her sales success, Maine has become a trusted internal advocate. In 2020, she served as co-chair of SBS’ Executive Council, which is focused on initiatives to improve the customer experience and strengthen employee engagement.

“Coaching is the most rewarding and fulfilling part of my job. Giving others the tools to succeed while guiding them toward a path to success is an irreplaceable feeling,” Maine says. “I believe being a good leader has nothing to do with a position or title but everything to do with how people around you are affected. I have a passion for seeing others win, and being a part of that process every day with both colleagues and vendor partners is what drives me.”

During her time as a professional athlete, Maine says she discovered that learning and training never stop, a lesson she has kept in mind throughout her career.
