Rodger Levenson, a banking industry veteran of more than three decades, has seen the growth of Wilmington-based WSFS Bank firsthand, rising through the C-Suite over 13 years to be named president and CEO in 2019. Since then, he has orchestrated WSFS’s merger with Bryn Mawr Trust to become the largest bank headquartered in the Philadelphia region and the sixth largest overall in the market. While WSFS is targeting growth in the Philadelphia market, the bank remains committed to its home state, employing more than 1,000 people here and donating millions to charity.
