From staff reports
Ameris Bank has announced the promotion of Andy Thomas to Lowcountry Market President.
Thomas, who was previously the market president for Beaufort, will be based in Mount Pleasant and will lead a team of commercial bankers to serve the loan, deposit and service needs of businesses throughout the Greater Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Summerville and Beaufort areas.
In this role, Thomas will continue reporting to Regional President for the Carolinas and Executive Vice President Richard Sturm. Thomas will still work closely with the bank’s Beaufort leadership, including Business Banker Mark Cutler and Branch Manager Melissa Williams.
“It is rewarding to continue to serve the business community of Greater Charleston, which I have done for more than 25 years,” Thomas said in a news release. “I will be working alongside a team of bright, dedicated bankers to earn the relationships of businesses across the region. I look forward to making ‘boots on the ground’ visits to my customers’ locations or job sites, which gives me a greater sense for their businesses and helps our team to recommend the right financial solutions.”
Thomas is a Clemson University graduate where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Financial Management.
