Robert B. Weidler Jr. was named chief financial officer for Jonestown Bank & Trust Co. (JBT).

Weidler takes over for William Roth who is retiring in November after 18 years.

“It has been a profound pleasure working with Bill,” said Troy A. Peters, president and CEO of JBT. “I am grateful for his leadership, expertise and support over the years, and he has been an integral part of JBT’s growth and success.”

Weidler graduated from Palmyra High School and Shippensburg University. Prior to joining JBT, Weidler was with Riverview Bank for 25 years, most recently as senior vice president and controller.

“Our search for a new CFO was extensive and extended well beyond Pennsylvania,” said Peters. “In the end, we were fortunate to find someone with Bob’s experience, qualifications and passion for community banking so close to home. He’s an excellent fit with JBT and our management team.”

“What attracted me to JBT was the opportunity to be part of a local community bank that has embraced technological change while maintaining their strong commitment to playing a part in the continued growth of the communities JBT serves,” said Weidler. “I’m really excited about the direction the bank is heading.”

A resident of Elizabethtown, Weider is a member of Elizabethtown Brethren in Christ Church.

JBT serves customers in Lebanon, Lancaster, and Berks counties. Founded in 1873, JBT currently has assets of over $800 million and 14 full-service locations.
