Quakertown-based QNB Corp., the holding company for QNB Bank, recently named Chris Cattie as the next QNB Bank president. The selection followed a comprehensive executive search process and is part of the company’s long-term leadership succession planning.
“Chris has demonstrated exceptional leadership, a deep commitment to our culture, and a proven ability to drive results,” Dave Freeman, QNB Bank president, said. “His vision, energy, and dedication to our customers and communities make him the ideal choice to lead QNB into the future. I look forward to working closely with Chris and our board to ensure a seamless and thoughtful transition.”
Cattie has been a member of the QNB leadership team for more than a decade, most recently as chief operating officer. He will succeed Freeman and will assume the role of QNB Bank president on Nov. 1. He also will join the QNB Corp. board of directors.
Freeman will remain as QNB Bank CEO and continue to serve as QNB Corp. president and CEO. He plans to retire on Dec.31, 2028, and it is expected that Cattie will assume the roles of president and CEO of both QNB Bank and QNB Corp.
