BBVA Compass appointed banking veteran Che Goff Corpus Christi City president, where he will lead all commercial, small business and Global Wealth operations in the area.
Goff succeeds Dan Brown, who is retiring from the banking industry but will continue to serve on the local board of directors for the bank.
“Our operations in the Corpus Christi area have increased substantially over the past five years,” said BBVA Compass Texas Border & Gulf Coast CEO Jon Rebello. “That’s around the time that Che started with us. That’s no coincidence in our eyes. Che has done more than enough to earn this position and take us to the next level in Corpus Christi, building off of what his predecessor accomplished.”
With over 20 years of experience in the financial industry, Goff has held the titles of financial analyst, dealer services supervisor and regional account manager with various companies.
Goff has been with BBVA Compass as a commercial loan officer since 2013, where he was responsible for growing and maintaining a portfolio of commercial customers in the Corpus Christi area. Before joining BBVA Compass, he was a commercial loan officer at a local competitor and served as a chief operating officer of a staffing company in Portland, TX.
“I always tell my customers that I have sat in their seat before,” said Goff. “I understand the stresses of making a payroll and I think that they appreciate that.”
