Beneficial State Bank recently promoted Randell Leach to Regional President of the Pacific Northwest division and Matt Anderson to Senior Vice President.

Leach, a corporate entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience in financial services, was the bank’s Chief Credit Officer prior to taking on this new role. He brings broad expertise in finance, operations, new market development, and the ability to creatively structure and negotiate deals. “Randell is a natural leader and has been pivotal to our recent growth and success,” said Kat Taylor, Beneficial State Co-Founder & Co-CEO. “In his new role, he will have an even greater impact on mission-aligned and fair financial services to the individuals, businesses and organizations we serve in our local communities.” As Regional President, Leach’s new role will encompass sales oversight over loans, transactions, deposits, and non-interest income products. Leach will lead Beneficial State’s efforts to expand the bank’s service area and mission in the Pacific Northwest.
