bank teller

Counter window worker

A bank teller is an employee who handles routine transactions at a bank—deposits, withdrawals, check cashing, and account inquiries.

Tellers work at windows or counters, serving as the primary point of contact between customers and the institution.

The role has diminished with ATMs and online banking, though tellers remain for complex transactions and customer service.
