PHILADELPHIA: #Banking--True, the premier global executive talent platform powered by data, AI, and deep sector expertise, announced the appointment of Chicago-based industry veteran Jeremy Zeman as Managing Director and Head of the newly launched Consumer and Commercial Banking Practice. The launch marks a significant expansion of True's financial services capabilities, one the firm has been building toward for years, and brings a dedicated practice to serve the full breadth of banking clients, from money-center institutions to regional banks and consumer finance companies.

Jeremy brings over 25 years of experience placing transformative senior leaders across banking and financial services. His work spans boards, c-suites, and functional leadership in credit, risk, finance, data & analytics, digital, and operations, with deep roots in the institutions, relationships, and regulatory environments that define the sector.

"The banking sector is one of the most consequential markets we serve, and launching a dedicated Consumer & Commercial Banking Practice within our Financial Services Practice reflects both the demand we're seeing from clients and our long-term investment in this space," said Brad Stadler, CEO of True. "Jeremy is the right person to lead it. His relationships and track record in this market are exceptional, and his arrival gives our clients a genuine edge."

"Banking is at an inflection point, and the talent decisions institutions make right now will define and impact the next decade," said Jeremy Zeman. "What drew me to True was its scale, the synergies with my own client network, and an innovative platform built to deliver at the highest level of complexity. True is one of the few firms that can credibly and nimbly serve the next-generation banking environment, and I'm excited to help build something that reflects that.”

The Consumer & Commercial Banking Practice builds on years of Financial Services work at True, bringing intention and expertise to one of the firm's most active markets. The banking sector is navigating significant transformation, driven by shifting competitive dynamics, technological change, and increasing regulatory complexity, and nowhere is that more visible than in the accelerating convergence of traditional banking and fintech which is reshaping the talent market in ways the industry hasn’t seen before. Institutions require executives who combine domain mastery with the ability to drive meaningful change.

"Having partnered with Jeremy earlier in my career, I know firsthand the massive advantage he brings to our clients as they navigate banking, payments, and consumer finance," said Jonathan Pomeranz, Managing Director and Head of the CEO, Board, and Financial Services Practices at True. "His ability to identify and place the segment heads and functional leaders that banking institutions need, at exactly the moment they need them, is rare. This practice launch has been a long time coming, and Jeremy is the ideal person to build it."
