Citizens appointed Rebecca O’Connell as its market executive for its New York City Metro branch. She will represent Citizens throughout the region as the bank partners with customers, businesses and communities. Citizens recently expanded its NYC Metro customer base by acquiring HSBC’s East Coast branches and New Jersey-based Investors Bank.
O’Connell has more than 25 years of experience as a banking executive and senior management consultant. She joins Citizens from JPMorgan where she has a history of success helping middle market and mid-corporate clients exceed growth and customer experience goals. In this role, she will oversee a portfolio of middle market and mid-corporate clients, acting as a strategic and financial partner.
“New York City is a very important growth market for Citizens and I am pleased to have Rebecca join our leadership team here,” Steve Woods, head of corporate banking, Citizens, said. “It is an exciting time to be at Citizens as we continue to grow nationally and expand the suite of solutions we can offer our customers.”
O’Connell is a board member of the Long Island Association and the Moxxie Mentoring Foundation, which supports and fosters the career advancement and leadership development of young women through generational mentoring.
