Following the retirement of current President and Chief Executive Officer James P. Kelly on May 31, 2026, Sugrue will assume the CEO title, the organization stated. Previously Sugrue was EVP at PNCU.
Kelly’s 20-year tenure as president and CEO has driven significant growth in membership and assets, introduced innovative financial services, and strengthened community ties, the CU stated.
