NACUSO’s Jack Antonini Announces Retirement
Antonini plans to step down as president/CEO later this year.
After 13 years as President/CEO of NACUSO, Jack Antonini said Friday that he plans on retiring from the CUSO advocacy and collaboration organization sometime later in 2023.
Antonini, who has led the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based organization since 2010, said he’s thankful for his time at NACUSO.
“I have loved working with the wonderful people in the credit union movement while serving CUSOs and credit unions as the president and CEO of NACUSO. With the NACUSO team and board of directors we have advanced the role of innovation and collaboration in the credit union system,” Antonini said. “I expect NACUSO to continue its growth after I retire, and I am dedicated to helping with the transition.”
In a statement, NACUSO said Antonini’s leadership helped expand the organization beyond its education origins to a better regulatory advocacy group to help credit unions innovate and amplify their work with and through CUSOs.
President of Skyla Financial Solutions at Skyla Federal Credit Union ($1.1 billion, Charlotte, N.C.) and NACUSO Board of Directors Chairman Ray Crouse said, “Jack’s leadership has brought NACUSO to a next level of sophistication and engagement in the credit union industry. We thank Jack for the contributions he has made to NACUSO and our members, and know they will long be regarded as critical years for positioning NACUSO as a key partner to credit unions, CUSOs and the system as a whole.”
According to NACUSO, officials have retained the services of Humanidei to conduct a search for the organization’s next president/CEO.
NACUSO Search Committee Chair and Curql President/CEO Nick Evens said, “We are eager to find the next president/CEO of NACUSO who will carry us forward on the strong foundation Jack has helped us build.”
