The Stevie Awards for Great Employers have selected New American Funding as winner of the 2017 Gold Award for “Employer of the Year in Financial Services.” This is the second consecutive year that New American has claimed the top prize in the international competition, which recognizes the world’s best employers and human resources professionals.
 
“We’re very proud to be a two-time gold Stevie winner for Employer of the Year. We believe it’s a reflection of our commitment to make our employees our top priority,” said Rick Arvielo, Chief Executive Officer of New American Funding. “Our mission has been to create a fun, friendly, and family-oriented culture that inspires people to love working at New American Funding.”
 
The Stevies received more than 500 nominations in various categories from companies around the world and selected New American Funding, a winner based on scores from a panel of judges and votes from the general public. The committee also named Rick Arvielo the Bronze Winner for “People-Focused CEO of the Year,” an award recognizing executives who make their organizations great.
 
In the past year, Arvielo has led New American Funding into record-breaking growth, which includes hiring 1,200-plus employees and adding 36 retail branches. Despite the company’s rapid expansion, Arvielo maintains an open-door policy and takes time to personally recognize employee accomplishments.
