In 1985, Collier joined IMCU as the training director and was promoted in 1992 to vice president of planning and administration before becoming CEO in 2003. During his executive leadership, the credit union's assets grew from $762 million to its current $2.9 billion in assets, while its members expanded from 88,846 to 148,870, according to NCUA Call Reports.
Newett, who is serving as IMCU's SVP of operations, was appointed president, the Indianapolis-based credit union said in a prepared statement. He joined IMCU in 2011 as director of planning and administration.
Newett previously served as the president/CEO of the $72.8 million Harvester Financial Credit Union in Indianapolis from 2000 to 2011, and he also worked as a principal examiner for the NCUA from 1995 to 2000.
"It gives me great pleasure to announce the appointment of John Newett as our new CEO," IMCU Board Chair Robert E. Martin said in a prepared statement. "John's dedication, leadership, strong financial background and proven success position him well for this role. Our board of directors is confident that John will continue to build on the IMCU legacy of member service, growth and success."
IMCU's 397 employees operate 33 locations across central and southern Indiana.
