Longtime head of credit union to retire

LAKELAND — Kevin Jones, CEO of Lakeland-based MidFlorida Credit Union since 1992, has announced his retirement, effective March 1, 2022. According to a news release, he will be succeeded by MidFlorida President Steve Mosely, who joined the organization in 1997 and has also served as CFO and executive president of its financial services division.

Jones, the release states, recently turned 65, so the time was right for a leadership change. He has overseen extraordinary growth at MidFlorida, guiding it from $100 million to nearly $6 billion in total assets, 60 full-service branches, 1,000-plus employees and more than 408,000 members during his tenure.
