MAX Credit Union, a $1.4 billion-asset institution based in Montgomery, Ala., on Tuesday selected Chief Operating Officer Martin Head to take over as interim CEO when current president and CEO H. Greg McClellan retires on June 7.
The announcement comes just days after MAX CU said McClellan, who has been its chief executive since 2005,
Keivan Deravi, chair of the MAX Credit Union board, noted Head has served the CU for almost 9 years.
“Head has always put MAX first and modeled our core values of Hospitality, Integrity, and Simplicity,” Deravi said in a statement.
“It has been my great pleasure to work in such a great community and to rub shoulders with some of the most passionate team members who care about our customers and members these past 9 years,” Head said. “My focus has been to insure that our customer experience is second to none.”
Deravi said the board is “very excited” about its choice. “We look forward to Martin Head’s leadership and vision for MAX.”
