Fetsko joined Tompkins Financial in 1996 and has served as chief financial officer since 2000, assuming the additional role of chief operating officer in 2012 overseeing company-wide operations and technology. He is an executive vice president of the bank holding company, Tompkins Financial Corp., and a member of its senior leadership team.

In keeping with the values of the company and his personal commitment to community service, Fetsko sits on a number of civic and nonprofit boards. The Ithaca resident is chair of the advisory board for the Kania School of Management at the University of Scranton, a board member of Ithaca-based Racker, an organization dedicated to supporting people with disabilities, and is past president of the YMCA of Ithaca and Tompkins County.

“Frank’s exceptional leadership and business acumen through times of economic change have been instrumental to our continued success as a high performing company,” said Tompkins Financial Corp. chair Thomas Rochon. “I would like to thank him personally, and on behalf of the board, for his contributions to Tompkins Financial Corp. which leave us well-positioned for the future.”

Steve Romaine, president & CEO, of Tompkins Financial Corp. added, “Frank has led with integrity, vision and a deep sense of caring over his almost three decades with Tompkins. He has been a supportive colleague and mentor to his many team members, always willing to lend his expertise, wisdom and strategic perspective to enrich those around him and Tompkins as a whole. I am grateful for the value and continuity that Frank will bring to our company in his part-time transitional role as director of strategy development. I wish him well in his retirement as he spends time with family and friends and enjoys his many varied interests.”

“I have enjoyed a wonderful career at Tompkins and am pleased to have the opportunity to serve the company in a new capacity upon stepping down from my current role. I am grateful, not only for the opportunity to serve the company, but for the many colleagues and friends I have made along the way. I have been truly fortunate to spend so much of my life at a place that shares my personal values and commitment to the community,” Fetsko said.
