Big news at Centerra!
We're excited to welcome Josh Hilbrands as the next President & CEO of Centerra Co-op. Josh officially joins us on September 1 after being unanimously selected by our Board of Directors following a comprehensive national search.
Josh brings extensive cooperative leadership experience and a passion for serving members, customers and employees. During his first few weeks, he'll be visiting our locations, meeting our team, listening, learning and getting to know the people who make Centerra what it is.
This announcement also marks the beginning of current President & CEO Jean Bratton's transition into retirement this September. Jean's leadership has helped shape Centerra into the cooperative it is today, and we're incredibly grateful for her many years of dedicated service.
Please join us in welcoming Josh to the Centerra family and thanking Jean for her outstanding leadership and lasting impact.
