Bank of Marin Bancorp’s board of directors approved the appointment of Tim Myers as president and chief operating officer of Bank of Marin Bancorp and Bank of Marin, effective immediately. In his new role, Myers will continue to report to Russell A. Colombo, CEO of Bank of Marin Bancorp, and be responsible for the management of commercial banking, retail banking, centralized operations and technology, wealth management and trust and marketing.

“Tim has been an invaluable member of the management team at Bank of Marin for many years,” Colombo said. “As COO, he has proven his ability to lead in an ever-changing environment and this new role is a natural progression of that success. I look forward to working even more closely with Tim to complete the merger with American River Bankshares and move into the next phase of the bank’s growth plan.”

Myers has more than 25 years of experience in finance and banking, spanning small business, middle-market and corporate banking. He joined Bank of Marin in April 2007 as senior vice president and manager of the San Francisco commercial banking office. In 2013, Myers was named senior vice president and head of commercial banking. In March 2015, he assumed the title of executive vice president of commercial banking. Myers was named executive vice president and chief operating officer in June 2020.

Myers began his banking career in 1998 as an assistant loan officer at Imperial Bank. When Imperial Bank was acquired by Comerica Bank, Myers became vice president and commercial banking officer. He also served as a vice president and relationship manager for U.S. Bank before joining Bank of Marin.

“Given the tremendous impact of the pandemic on the economy and the business community as a whole, consistent and stable leadership is more important than ever for the continued success of any organization,” Brian Sobel, chairman of the board of directors of Bank of Marin Bancorp, said. “Tim understands and embodies the mission, culture and values that have helped drive Bank of Marin to more than 30 years of growth and expansion. My fellow directors and I believe that together, he and Russ Colombo will continue to deliver strong performance and value for key stakeholders.”
