George takes on the important role of leading the development of financial policies and overseeing all financial functions, including accounting, budgeting, insurance, tax and treasury.”

Unity’s customer relationships are central to its mission of ‘growing with you’ and, as we help our customers realize their financial dreams, we also fuel the next stage of growth for the bank.”
