AKRON, Ohio—Jennifer Borowy has been named CEO of Buckeye State Credit Union.
Previously, Borowy was senior vice president for retail sales and marketing for the $90-million credit union. She succeeds Francis Odhiambo, who left Buckeye State after leading it for the last two years, the Akron Beacon Journal reported.
Borowy joined Buckeye State in January with a banking background after having spent eight years with National City and PNC. She left PNC as vice president and branch manager for the Fairlawn PNC branch, the Journal reported.
“Our goal for 2017 is to get out into the community and make an influential difference that will change lives. Buckeye State Credit Union went through a rebranding effort in 2016, and our Million Dollar Challenge was just the beginning,” Borowy told the publication, referring to a credit union goal to save $1 million by the end of year for its members.
“Jennifer has been an instrumental leader and delivered significant results for Buckeye State Credit Union in 2016. The board is confident that Jennifer has the drive, strong leadership skills, and innovation to execute the strategies we need to propel Buckeye in to the future,” Buckeye State Credit Union Board President Dave Nero told the Journal.
