SAN DIEGO–Credit union core data processor Corelation has named a new president. The company announced that Theresa Benavidez has turned over her responsibilities as company president to Rob Landis, who had been serving as the company’s COO.
Benavidez will retain her title as CEO, “continuing to play a strategic role in the organization, while Landis assumes control of the company’s day-to-day operations.”
The company said it will name a new COO shortly, with Corelation saying the move is part of its larger succession plan and has been in the works for several years.
“We planned to make this transition sometime in 2022, but I realized that now is the right time,” said Benavidez. “I couldn’t have made this move if I didn’t have absolute confidence in Rob’s abilities.”
“I remember telling Theresa in 2009 that someday I’d like to sit in her chair,” added Landis. “These are very big shoes to fill and frankly I could never fill them on my own. Fortunately, we’ve built a world-class executive team that will greatly ease the transition.”
