Drew Ysseldyke
GRANDVILLE, Mich., — Grand River Bank has promoted Drew Ysseldyke to President & Chief Executive Officer. This completes a transition process that began when Ysseldyke joined the Bank as president in April 2023. He succeeds Pat Gill, who has served as CEO since 2012 and who will continue as an advisor and board member.
Immediately prior to joining Grand River Bank, Ysseldyke was Market President and Corporate Banking Executive for Old National Bank in Grand Rapids. A West Michigan native with nearly thirty years of diverse banking experience, Ysseldyke is a highly skilled leader with a history of building strong teams and delivering solid results.
“It has been a joy to work alongside Drew during this transition period,” said former CEO Pat Gill, who guided the Bank’s growth to over $500 million in assets during his tenure. “He’s the ideal person to lead the accomplished Grand River Bank team and will ensure that the Bank takes full advantage of its many unique opportunities across West Michigan. I’m grateful to have been a member of this outstanding team for the past dozen years and pleased to pass the baton to Drew.”
“We are grateful to Pat for his many valuable contributions to our bank, and we are excited about the opportunity this brings for Drew to enhance our operational performance, expand our reach and renew the promise of our commitment to West Michigan,” said Robert Bilotti, Chairman and CEO of Grand River Commerce, Inc., the Bank’s parent company.
