Michael E. Schrage, CEO and Chairman of Centier Bank, is pleased to announce the recent appointment of Marie Robinson as Branch Manager at Centier Bank’s Merrillville Strack and Van Til’s branch.
Robinson joined Centier Bank in 2008 after working in the financial industry for five years. Prior to joining banking, she served in customer-facing roles in the hospitality and nonprofit industries. She has served as the branch manager at Centier’s Gary Glen Park branch since 2014. Robinson said the thing she enjoys most about being a banker is helping people.
“It is a pleasure to help guide someone on their financial journey and then celebrate with them when they have achieved their goals,” Robinson said. “Hearing a client say, ‘I couldn’t have done this without you,’ is the most rewarding part of my job.”
LaToya Goodwin, Regional Sales Manager at Centier Bank, said Marie’s leadership style is to empower her team to create exceptional service for the bank’s clients.
“Marie cares about her job, and that is reflected in all of her personal interactions and the interactions clients have with team members at the branch,” Goodwin said. “We have been lucky to have Marie in the Centier family for over 12 years and are so proud of her accomplishments.”
The Purdue University alumna serves as the secretary and board member for the New Ebenezer MBC, on the board of the Salvation Army Gary-Merrillville, and as board treasurer for Neighbors’ Education Opportunities in Portage. She resides in East Chicago with her fiancé, Willie.
