Jeannine Petell

Community Trust Bank

After 36 years in the banking industry, Jeannine Petell understands the importance of forging genuine connections with her staff, team members and clients.

“The important lesson I’ve learned in my career is that building and maintaining relationships are key,” Petell reflected. “I truly love learning about and helping people. I am still in contact with people who I’ve met throughout my career.”

As a Vice President, Branch Manager and Lender with Community Trust, Petell helps her clients access tailored products and services that meet their needs with a commitment to the highest standards of customer service.

Following stints at Key Bank, Fifth Third, National City and PNC, she knows what separates good service from great service. And, with decades of success, she has demonstrated the power of hard work and optimism.

“When I entered the world of banking 36 years ago, it certainly was a male-dominated industry, but because of my driven nature, competitive spirit and positive attitude, I was able to quickly earn the respect of all of my coworkers,” Petell recalled. “I also had the opportunity to be mentored by both men and women in this industry.”
