Plumas Bank Welcomes New Chief Credit Officer Kevin Kaiser
Leadership Transition at Plumas Bank
Plumas Bank has announced an important change in leadership, as Jeff Moore, the Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer, will retire at the end of the year. Having joined the bank in 2018, Moore has made significant contributions, steering the credit department through major advancements and ensuring a solid foundation for future growth.
Jeff Moore's Legacy
With a banking career that spans more than forty years, Moore's impact at Plumas Bank is profound. He led initiatives that modernized the bank's lending processes, including the adoption of the Sageworks underwriting platform and the introduction of a Business Express product aimed at enhancing small business loan delivery. Furthermore, he implemented a financial management tool that transformed the loan tracking process into a more efficient system.
Under Moore's leadership, the bank refined its credit policies and improved its lending capabilities. This strategic overhaul not only enhanced immediate performance but also set the stage for continued stability and growth.
Introducing Kevin Kaiser as Chief Credit Officer
Following Moore's retirement, Kevin Kaiser, previously the Senior Vice President and Credit Administrator, has been appointed as the new Chief Credit Officer. Kaiser has been a part of Plumas Bank since 2014 and brings with him a wealth of experience, particularly in commercial and agricultural lending, as well as an in-depth understanding of the bank's markets.
Kaiser’s Role and Vision
Since stepping into the Credit Administrator role in 2019, Kaiser has worked closely with Moore, gaining valuable insights into the management of the bank’s credit operations. His familiarity with the portfolio management, loan documentation, and credit services teams positions him as an ideal successor. Kaiser’s knowledge and leadership promise to foster continuity across these essential functions.
Acknowledgments from Leadership
Andy Ryback, President and Chief Executive Officer of Plumas Bank, has expressed his gratitude for Moore's contributions, saying, “Jeff’s leadership evolved every aspect of our credit function. He introduced clear standards and practical tools that have enhanced quality and speed while effectively managing risk.” Ryback is confident that with Kaiser at the helm, the transition will be seamless and uphold the bank's high standards of credit discipline.
