Brian Westerlind has taken on the role of leading Webster Five bank, following the July 1 retirement of President & CEO Don Doyle.

Westerlind’s succession of Doyle, first announced in June 2024, sees the Worcester native take on the role of president & CEO after having joined Webster Five in 2010 as CFO.

“I’m honored to lead Webster Five into its next chapter,” Westerlind said in a July 9 press release. “This Bank has a legacy of exceptional personal service, financial strength and community support, and I’m excited to continue that tradition while looking ahead to new opportunities for growth and impact.”
