Our client, a $500 million publicly traded bank with strong equity and an ESOP, is seeking a dynamic and experienced community banker to step into the role of President/CEO. The current CEO is nearing retirement and will transition into the CHOB role. This leaves an opportunity for a new leader to take the bank forward with a vision to grow to $1 Billion. They are looking for someone who can strategically lead this growth while making key decisions. This position offers a unique level of autonomy. With no direct supervisor, the new CEO will have the freedom and responsibility to make high-level decisions, such as expanding into new markets, new branches, or acquiring other banks. Reporting directly to the board, the ideal candidate will need to be decisive, strategic, and comfortable navigating a publicly traded bank. While Nebraska ties would be a great asset, they are open to candidates from outside the area who bring a strong background in community banking and a proven ability to lead a bank with vision and independence.
