Employee Insights – Bronson Lavender

Bronson Lavender recently joined the Pinnacle Bank team as the Market Manager in the Lumpkin, Dawson and Forsyth counties Market areas, bringing over 30 years of banking experience to our team.

Bronson grew up in Jefferson, Georgia, and graduated from the University of North Georgia with a degree in business administration. He worked through high school and college in the banking industry—starting in 1985 as a janitor and working his way through many different operational opportunities, which he enjoyed. After graduating from college, Bronson attended a financial institution management training program and has since worked in several management positions throughout his career.

While he has worked in many areas and positions in banking, Bronson feels his expertise lies in commercial lending and market expansion, which will be his primary responsibility at Pinnacle Bank. More than anything else, though, Bronson gets the most satisfaction in his career from finding ways to help clients achieve their financial hopes and dreams and mentoring employees to be the best they can be.

When Bronson is not at the bank, he enjoys being with this family, spending time outdoors (especially hunting and fishing), and leading the young men’s group at his church.

We’re glad Bronson is a part of the Pinnacle team and look forward to great things happening in the future.
