Delie, who has been with the firm for seven years, succeeds Stephen Gurgovits, who will serve as chairman of FNB going forwards, and also continue as chairman of First National Bank. Delie has also been elected to the board of directors and will carry on as president of FNB and CEO of First National Bank.
