U.S. Bank promoted two leaders: Ross Carey and Steve SaLoutos. Carey will lead Small Business and SaLoutos will lead Metropolitan Banking. Both will report to John Elmore, vice chairman of Consumer Banking and Branch Delivery.

Carey has been with U.S. Bank since 1991. He was most recently head of Metropolitan Banking in the western portion of U.S. Bank’s 25-state footprint. In this new role, Carey is based in Salem, OR and will oversee all Small Business banking teams and Small Business Administration and Practice Finance divisions. This team of more than 870 employees supports every aspect of a small business customer’s banking and credit needs.

Milwaukee-based Steve SaLoutos was named head of all Metropolitan Banking, spanning 1,187 branches and uniting what had previously been two metropolitan divisions: Midwest and West. SaLoutos, who has been with U.S. Bank for 32 years, previously led the Midwest division. He now oversees a team of more than 8,400 employees.

“These changes in our organization will help us deliver a strong, unified approach to consumer and small business banking,” Elmore said. “The experience and leadership strength that Steve and Ross bring to these positions are extraordinary. They approach their roles with integrity and that credibility is felt among their peers, their employees and our customers.”
