Mechanicsburg-based federal credit union AmeriChoice welcomed its newest president and CEO this week.

The 14,500-member credit union’s Board of Directors recently appointed Kenneth Dyer, the former senior vice president of emerging opportunities at Members 1st Federal Credit Union, to the role.

Dyer held his position at Members 1st, also based in Mechanicsburg, for over two years before joining AmeriChoice. During his career he also worked for the Pennsylvania Credit Union Association, Heritage River Village Development and Eastern Savings Bank in Connecticut.

Gregg Wells, AmeriChoice’s board chairman, said he is pleased to welcome Dyer as the credit union’s new president and CEO.

“With more than 30 years of leadership experience in the financial services industry, Ken brings a wealth of knowledge on how to drive organizational innovation, growth and member satisfaction,” Wells said.

AmeriChoice wrote in a statement that Dyer brings with him a compelling vision and the ability to execute on strategies in a way that it expects will drive innovation.

“I am very excited to assume this new role and for the future of the credit union,” said Dyer. “We have an exceptionally talented team at AmeriChoice that is focused on meeting the ever-changing needs of our members and the community.”

Dyer succeeds Anna May Nauss, AmeriChoice’s CEO since 2014. Nauss retired from the roll on Dec. 31.
