St. Pierre succeeds the retiring Brian Shibles, who has served at NSB for over 23 years, including 20 years as NSB’s CFO and 12 years as Treasurer.

St. Pierre arrived at Norway Savings Bank in December of 2023 as Senior Finance Officer SVP and has since overseen the overall management of the bank’s financial accounting, budget, investments, facilities management, and project management.

He possesses more than 20 years of executive leadership experience, including over a decade in community banking.

“In his time at NSB, Rich has proven to be a tremendous addition, working closely with Brian and the Finance and Facilities Teams to prepare for his transition as well as overseeing the implementation of Norway Savings Bank’s new Online and Mobile Banking platform earlier this year,” said Dan Walsh, President and CEO of NSB. “He has an extensive finance background and that prior experience combined with his calm and respectful demeanor make him the perfect choice as the bank’s new CFO and Treasurer.”

A Windham native, St. Pierre earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting from the University of Southern Maine and later earned his Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation. His extensive knowledge and experience in financial reporting, budgeting, strategic planning, asset liability management, investment management, regulatory reporting, insurance, new branch development, business continuity planning and vendor management make him a valuable asset to the NSB team.

In his free time, Rich enjoys watching New England Sports (Go Pats!) and spending time with his family at their camp. He is also a year-round outdoor enthusiast.

Besides his leadership role at NSB, St. Pierre currently serves on the board of Kennebec Valley Community Action Program as well as the board and loan committee of Southern Maine Finance Agency.<
