CEO of Patriot Federal Credit Union retiring, successor to be named

Brad Warner will retire as president and CEO of Patriot Federal Credit Union in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, in early 2023.

The $957 million-asset Patriot FCU has formed a committee to conduct a search for Warner's successor, according to a press release. The search will be conducted by Modern Executive Solutions and will include internal candidates, the company said.

Warner will continue as president and CEO and will work with his successor and the board on a transition plan. 

Brad Warner will retire as president and CEO of Patriot FCU early next year.

Warner became president and CEO in late 2015 when he replaced Peggy Bosma-LaMascus, and since then Patriot has expanded its branch network from six to 10 locations, completed a merger with Neighbors First Federal Credit Union and expanded its footprint into Frederick County, Maryland, and the eastern panhandle of West Virginia.

"It's been an honor to work with so many talented people and serve so many kind and caring members. I will miss the members and staff that I consider my family," Warner said in the press release. 

Under Warner's leadership, the credit union has undergone a major credit/debit card network change and expanded its business services.

"Brad has led Patriot with a servant heart and forward-looking vision," Patriot Chairman Dennis Coons said in the press release. "His contributions to the credit union and the community will always be valued and are worthy of admiration."

Patriot earned $6.3 million in the first six months of 2022, a 29% increase from a year earlier, according to call report data from the National Credit Union Administration.
