Fields has been serving as the interim president and CEO since November 2008, after the untimely death of former President and Chief Executive Officer John A. Davis, Jr.

Fields has been with Pen Air Federal Credit Union since 2001, serving as the executive vice president and chief financial officer. Fields’ career in the credit union industry stretches over 30 years, including active memberships with the Credit Union Executive Society and National Association of Federal Credit Unions.

“We have great confidence in Ron’s leadership,” said Chairman of the Board Maurice Johnson. “His talent and personal qualities, as well as his experience and knowledge of this industry will allow for a seamless transition and set the stage for a strong future.”

As president and CEO, Fields will oversee Pen Air Federal Credit Union, established in 1936, which has over $900 million in assets and over 90,000 member-owners. Pen Air Federal Credit Union has 15 locations in Northwest Florida and South Alabama, including a location in Century.

“I really appreciate the Board of Directors and their confidence in my abilities,” Fields said. “As we move forward, I will keep in mind the best interest of Pen Air’s member-owners, while ensuring the continued strength and security that our member-owners have come to expect from Pen Air Federal Credit Union.”
