Fishers, Indiana-headquartered First Internet Bank has hired J. Blake Sanderson as first vice president of commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction.
In his new role, Sanderson will work to further expand relationships and a portfolio currently exceeding $1 billion in commitments. Sanderson succeeds Nick Campbell, who has been promoted to senior credit officer, assuming responsibility for the bank’s commercial credit administration.
Sanderson brings nearly 30 years of commercial banking experience to First Internet Bank. He was previously vice president and senior commercial banker at STAR Financial Bank, and earlier in his career he was vice president of business banking at Centier Bank.
“Blake offers a wealth of commercial lending expertise,” said David Becker, First Internet Bank chairman and CEO. “His credit knowledge and ability to build mutually beneficial relationships made him the ideal choice to lead our team.”
