At Chesapeake Bank, we do things different. Yawn. Booooring. Click to a new page immediately. We get that. But maybe you’ve got nowhere to be, you have a minute to get curious, and you humor us, asking “how different?” Different enough that in 1968 we put a bank on a boat for the local watermen. Different enough that we took the word national out of our name because our customers aren’t “national” – they’re people. And hold on to your windbreakers for this one: so different we remember your name. “Wow, you guys really are different.”

Thank you, that means a lot. But here’s the kicker: we’ve never really tried to be all that different. It’s just something we are. People that help people. Maybe it’s something in the water? Or maybe “different” is just The Chesapeake Way.

Your "Captains of the Community"

Your friendly neighborhood banking gurus. We’re all about resourcefulness, consistency, and good old-fashioned honesty.

Careers

We’ve been named American Banker’s “Best Bank to Work For” since 2013. Our employees, customers, and investors will tell you we’re resourceful, steady, creative, reassuring, knowledgeable, genuine, and a jovial group who cares deeply about the community we live in. Come work with us.

History

Going beyond banking for our customers has been our mindset since we opened our doors along the shores of the Northern Neck in 1900. Many of our customers have been with us for decades. Generations even. We’ve always been responsive to those in our community, as evidenced by our former floating “Boat ‘N Bank,” created to better serve workers at the Irvington oyster packing plant back in 1968. Now, as the bank expands into other territories across the Commonwealth, we continue to solve challenges and innovate while staying true to our hometown roots.

Our Board of Directors

The Board of Directors are trusted leaders who are expertly guiding Chesapeake Bank into the future. We assemble three boards – Chesapeake Financial Shares Directors, Chesapeake Bank Directors, and Chesapeake Wealth Management Directors
