Old National Bank announced it has appointed six Market Presidents across its Illinois footprint. Old National Bancorp, the holding company of Old National Bank, recently completed its transformative merger with First Midwest Bancorp, Inc. to create the sixth-largest commercial bank headquartered in the Midwest.

The six Market Presidents are:

• Mike Jamieson, Vice Chairman of Commercial Banking – Chicago Metropolitan (City of Chicago);
• Bob Kelly, Director of Business Banking – Chicago Southside (Southside of Chicago and Southern Suburbs, Parts of Eastern Will County);
• Connie Lavin, Group Head, Business Banking – Northern Chicago Suburbs (Lake and McHenry Counties);     
• Rick Mahoney, Group Head, Business Banking – Western Chicago Suburbs (DuPage, Kane and DeKalb Counties) and Quad Cities; and    
• Bob Diedrich, Senior Manager, Wealth Management and Kelly Cunningham, Community Banking Executive – Southwest Chicago Suburbs (Grundy and Will Counties).

The six Market Presidents lead Old National’s community brand activation efforts and work closely with local team members to determine needs and opportunities in each market. They are also responsible for fostering relationships with local centers of influence, nonprofits and government organizations, as well as decisioning local sponsorships, events and community investments. Market Presidents are appointed because of their presence in the community and have agreed to take on this role in addition to their day-to-day responsibilities.

“Throughout their careers, these six Market Presidents have been exceptional leaders who have a well-established and respected presence in their respective markets and have a demonstrated ability to collaborate with local leaders across all constituencies to benefit their communities,” said Mark Sander, President of Old National. “Their continued commitment to and deep understanding of the markets they serve make them ideal candidates to expand their leadership responsibilities and take on these important roles on behalf of Old National Bank.”

With approximately $46 billion of assets and $31 billion of assets under management, Old National ranks among the top 35 banking companies based in the U.S. and has been recognized as a World’s Most Ethical Company by the Ethisphere Institute for 11 consecutive years.
