Mark McMullen, vice chairman of Associated Bank, is set to retire on 10 February, following a 30-year career at the bank.

McMullen spent the majority of his career growing the bank’s wealth management division, which he expanded to offer a full range of services including private banking, investment management, trust, financial planning and insurance services. He has been part of the firm’s executive committee since April 2001.

Following his retirement as vice chairman, he will continue serving as chairman of the bank’s Northeast Wisconsin advisory board.

"Mark has been one of the pillars of our company and an inspiration to colleagues throughout our organization," said Philip Flynn, chief executive and president of Associated Bank. "His years of experience have helped Associated to become a strong regional financial services company poised for growth.”
