OSWEGO, NY (October 2, 2023) – Compass Federal Credit Union has appointed Eric Morris as its first Chief Operations Officer.
Morris comes to Compass FCU after previously serving as the Director of Human Resources at Oswego Industries, Inc.
“I truly feel welcome here at Compass and am excited to continue to cultivate relationships with employees, members, the Board of Directors and the Oswego County community,” said Morris. “In my short time with the credit union, I have observed top notch customer service, a team cohesive environment and staff who are dedicated to supporting the membership, community and each other. It is this foundation that will allow us to build towards the future and help us reach our organizational goals. I thank everyone for the warm welcome and look forward to the future with Compass.”
