STCU names North Idaho business VP, promotes branch manager in Spokane Valley 

Trevor Young is the credit union’s new Vice President of Business Banking. He will lead STCU’s business efforts in North Idaho as it seeks to expand its market presence and provide additional business and commercial banking resources across its growing retail footprint. 

Young has more than 20 years of experience in business, commercial banking, and real estate experience in North Idaho, most recently with Mountain West Bank. A Coeur d’Alene resident, he is an active community volunteer with the Excel Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, and proud supporter of many other North Idaho organizations. Young has both a Bachelor of Science and MBA from the University of Idaho. 

Young’s arrival continues the credit union’s years-long focus on its business and commercial divisions. STCU’s growing team of bankers is well equipped to help larger businesses with more complex needs, offering robust point-of-sale solutions, cash management and payroll tools, and commercial loans for a wide range of projects.

Additionally, Ryan Cruz, a nine-year veteran of the credit union, was recently promoted to Community Branch Manager at STCU’s South Valley location, furthering the organization’s goal of developing leaders internally.

A graduate of Central Valley High School and Spokane Community College, Cruz joined STCU in 2017 and has worked in a variety of member-facing roles, most recently as Assistant Branch Manager at the nearby Valley Branch.

Founded in Spokane in 1934, STCU is a not-for-profit financial cooperative that serves more than 300,000 members at 51 branches in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon, and online at stcu.org.
