AUSTIN, Texas – Ken Gardner has been named Assistant Vice President of Human Resources at Greater Texas CU.

Gardner began his career with Greater Texas in 2012 as an HR assistant, moving up to HR manager and then to Total Rewards and HRIS Manager, the position he held before being named assistant vice president.

Gardner added that his new role allows him to partner with other Greater Texas leaders to optimize organizational development while ensuring that the work culture at the credit union “truly reflects our core values.”
