MIAMI LAKES,
FL – BankUnited announced two key new hires in Orlando, making the bank’s
Central Florida commercial real estate finance team its largest in Florida,
while expanding its corporate banking team just one year after the market
launch of its wholesale banking division.
“We see room
for growth in Orlando and Central Florida as the region continues to broaden
its base of business beyond tourism and hospitality into a more
fully-integrated economic spectrum of businesses,” said Thomas Cornish, state president of Florida.
“Orlando is a priority
market for BankUnited as we look to grow our portfolio in this region from $600
million to the billion dollar range within a couple of years.”
Steven Markowski of Winter Park has been named senior
vice president for commercial real estate lending.
Ted Kunkel of Windermere has been named vice
president of business lending.
“Steven and
Ted join an already strong BankUnited team of CRE lenders and commercial
bankers here in Orlando, and we look forward to the vital role they will play
as we expand our corporate and commercial real estate banking services in the
market,” said Michael McClanahan,
Orlando market executive.
Markowski,
Kunkel and Sitterly will be based at BankUnited’s Downtown Orlando corporate
office, 189 South Orange Avenue, Suite 1250.
