Mark Riebe, Chairman of the Board of TexasBank, has announced the promotion of Greg Dodds to assume the role of Chief Executive Officer in addition to retaining his current title of President.
“Greg and I have worked together over the last two years to accomplish the successful merger of two high performing banks with distinctively different business models,” Riebe stated. “Over that time, we have experienced extraordinary growth in all of our markets and business lines while also putting together an incredible executive leadership team that will enable us to continue to expand our footprint in the state of Texas for years to come. We think Greg is the right person to lead that effort and I look forward to supporting his leadership.”
Dodds joined TexasBank in Brownwood in 1996 as an Executive Vice President of Commercial Lending. Since that time, he has played an instrumental role in helping the bank grow and served as its President and CEO from 2011 to 2021. While TexasBank’s initial presence was in the Central Texas region, it entered the El Paso market in 2020 and then merged with its sister bank, Texas Bank Financial, in 2022. Today, TexasBank reports over $2.3 Billion in Assets with 16 full-service branches and three loan production offices located throughout West and Central Texas including Brown, Comanche, Erath and Eastland counties and the cities of Austin, Dallas, El Paso, Fort Worth and Weatherford.
“I am excited to be given the opportunity to lead TexasBank toward continued success, Dodds said. Under Mark’s guidance, we have assembled a remarkable leadership team that I know has a shared commitment to continue to grow our bank the old-fashioned way; through hard work, dedication to our customers and employees, and a true commitment to making a difference in the communities that we serve. I am also grateful for the team of employees that I have worked with in Brownwood for the last 27 years, as well as the additional team members I have become acquainted with since our merger. I look forward to working with all of them as well as our exceptional ownership group and Board of Directors that includes local representation from Bill Blagg, Paul Waldrop, Jr, Bart Johnson, and Charles Lockwood.”
In addition to Dodds’ promotion, Steven McDonald and Lin Bearden have been given promotions and expanded roles within the organization. McDonald will now serve as the bank’s Chief Administrative Officer in addition to his current role as Chief Financial Officer while Bearden will assume the role of the bank’s Chief Lending Officer while maintaining his title of President of the Parker County Market.
