Clarion County Community Bank in Pa. hires new CEO

Clarion County Community Bank in Clarion, Pa., has new leadership.

The $230 million-asset bank said that Travis Heiser had become its president and CEO. Heiser, who was CEO of Inner Lakes Federal Credit Union, succeeded James Kifer.

Kifer had led the bank for 20 years.

“It’s been incredibly rewarding to be in this role over the past 20 years; to have led the build-out of a new bank that created jobs, grew the local economy and supported many businesses were all important aspects to me,” Kifer said in a press release.

“Our recent expansion into the Erie region with our Flagship Community Bank brand is equally gratifying, but most rewarding were the many people we helped over the years make their dreams a reality,” Kifer added.
