OMB Bank makes two C-suite appointments

Springfield-based OMB Bank has made two executive-level appointments along with the creation of a new brand within the company.

Joey Orr has been named executive vice president and chief operations officer, and Steve Bishop was selected as executive vice president, chief innovation officer and president of OMBX, according to a news release. OMBX is a newly launched brand within the company that focuses on its integrated banking efforts, particularly banking as a service.

Orr succeeds Bishop as COO, said Ryan Bowling, vice president and director of marketing for OMB Bank.

"Joey's extensive experience in community banking and operations will bring invaluable leadership to our treasury and retail teams, ensuring we continue to deliver exceptional service to our clients. Steve’s forward-thinking approach and dedication to innovation will drive OMBX’s success, allowing us to expand our partnerships in brand new ways," said Mark Harrington, OMB Bank president and CEO, in the release. "Together, their leadership will help shape OMB's future as we grow and adapt in a rapidly evolving financial landscape."

Orr, who previously served as executive vice president of community banking and has been with the company since 2017, will oversee OMB Bank's Treasury Services group, retail banking, deposit operations and lender support services in the COO position. Orr has more than two decades of banking experience.

Bishop's chief innovation officer position is a new one, as is his president role over OMBX. He joined OMB Bank in 2020.
