  • Nancy Coelho, Branch Manager
  • Paul Sousa, VP, Commercial Lender (on-site)
  • Gina Helm, VP, Head of Residential Lending
  • Brenden Vadeboncoeur and Shaelyn Ferreira, Bankers
  •  
Together, they bring years of trusted experience and a shared commitment to exceptional customer service.
 “Our Warren team is made up of banking professionals who understand this community and are passionate about delivering personal, knowledgeable service,” said Harold M. Horvat, President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board of Centreville Bank. “They reflect the values we stand for at Centreville Bank--local decision-making, best-in-class customer service, and a long-term commitment to helping people make progress toward achieving their financial goals.”
The new branch at 521 Main Street will offer a full range of personal and business banking services, including checking and savings accounts, residential and commercial lending, online and mobile banking, an ITM/ATM and more.
