Brad Calhoun will be the new president and CEO at Teachers Federal Credit Union in Hauppauge, N.Y.
The $7 billion-asset Teachers said on Wednesday that Calhoun, the former chief retail and marketing officer at First Tech Federal Credit Union in Hillsboro, Ore., will take over in early June.
“I welcome the opportunity to work with TFCU’s board, staff and members as we enter this new chapter in the credit union’s history,” Calhoun said in a press release. “TFCU is a respected credit union that has seen rapid growth over the past several years.”
Calhoun plans to continue the credit union’s expansion across Long Island and New York City.
Calhoun brings over 24 years of experience to his new role. At First Tech, Calhoun oversaw nearly half of the 1,400 plus employee network across the CU's 42 branches. Calhoun also directed various marketing initiatives in addition to leading a branch redesign initiative.
Prior to joining First Tech, Calhoun held different positions at Bank of America where he was most recently an area executive senior vice president within the bank’s Pacific Northwest region.
“On behalf of the board of directors of Teachers Federal Credit Union, more than 800 staff members and over 325,000 members, I would also like to express our heartfelt appreciation and admiration for Robert Allen and his three decades of service as TFCU’s CEO/President,” Timothy Southerton, chairman of Teachers, said in the release. “Today, thanks to Mr. Allen’s stewardship, TFCU is a strong and highly respected credit union.”
