Class of 2024

Robert Pieroni, senior vice president and Kenosha County market president of Union Grove-based Community State Bank, has more than two decades of banking experience at several of the region’s financial institutions.

He started his career at M&I Bank in retail operations and eventually moved to leadership roles at Talmer Bank & Trust and First Business Bank before landing at Community State Bank in 2018.

Pieroni’s primary roles include working with local businesses to help promote community growth and meet their individual needs, as well as strengthening community partnerships and promoting the many advantages of working with a community bank, said Peter Wilder, attorney at Godfrey & Kahn.

“Robert leads the CSB Kenosha banking team, focusing on developing commercial and consumer relationships as well as business development, commercial lending, commercial banking, consumer lending, deposit growth and mortgage lending,” Wilder said.

When the opening of the CSB Kenosha branch was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Pieroni helped navigate the situation while assisting his clients with the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program.
