Job description
A well-established community bank with over a century of history and 70+ locations across Oklahoma and Texas is seeking a dynamic Market President to lead its Gainesville community banking operation. This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-visibility leadership role with true P&L ownership, deep community impact, and the backing of a strong regional institution.
The Opportunity
As Market President, you won't just manage a branch — you'll own a market. You'll be entrusted with the full lending portfolio, community bank operations, and personnel leadership for the Gainesville region, all while serving as the face of the bank in local business and civic circles. If you're a seasoned banking leader who thrives on autonomy, relationship-building, and driving profitable growth, this is your next chapter.
What You'll Do
Own the market — full accountability for the community bank's balance sheet, income statement, and loan portfolio
Lead the team — direct supervision of Loan Officers, Loan Assistants, CSRs, and tellers
Drive growth — expand retail and commercial market share through strategic lending and relationship development
Manage risk — oversee new loan requests, past dues, classified loans, non-accruals, overdrafts, and exceptions
Be the face of the bank — represent the institution in community, civic, and business organizations
Develop people — educate, mentor, and build a high-performing team culture
What You Bring
Bachelor's degree in Finance or related field
10-20 years of relevant banking and management experience
Strong regulatory and financial expertise within the banking industry
Proven negotiation, underwriting, and credit analysis skills
Demonstrated leadership within a matrix organizational structure
The gravitas to communicate complex financial concepts to senior leadership and the board
A polished, professional presence — you represent the bank everywhere you go
Why This Role
This is a chance to lead with real authority in a company that values community roots, long-term relationships, and professional excellence. You'll have direct influence over the market's success and the platform to make a visible, lasting impact.
This search is being conducted confidentially.
