Joe Rilatt has been named Central Pennsylvania market president for Fulton Bank. It is a new position for the Lancaster-based bank, which is a subsidiary of Fulton Financial.
Rilatt, who joined Fulton as a management trainee in 1991, worked most recently as director of commercial product sales. In his new role, he will provide regional leadership and ensure collaboration across Fulton’s consumer, business banking, commercial and wealth management businesses.
“Joe knows Central Pennsylvania better than anyone, and his years of service to this community are a true accomplishment,” Fulton Bank executive market president Jeff Rush said in a statement.
The bank’s Central PA region covers Berks, Centre, Columbia, Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Lycoming, Montour, Northumberland, Schuylkill, Snyder, Union and York counties.
Fulton Financial has assets of more than $30 billion, employs more than 3,500 people and operates more than 200 branches in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Virginia.
Fulton is also expanding its reach in the Philadelphia market thanks to recent acquisitions, such as a deal to buy Philly-based Republic First Bank after it was shut down by regulators earlier this year.
