EVP, Executive Managing Director, Corporate, Specialty & Government Banking
Huntington National Bank
Zewditu Tizu Menelik has spent her career in the center of some of the banking industry's biggest recent challenges. Now as many banks retrench, Menelik is making a different bet, growing and restructuring Huntington Bancshares' corporate, specialty and government banking segment.
Menelik was tapped to lead corporate, specialty and government banking at Huntington in October 2022, coming over from Fifth Third where she was the group head of diversified industries and international corporate banking. At Huntington, she has recruited away a specialized mortgage solutions team from Flagstar Bank, added financial services focused on federally recognized Native American tribes, and started a national deposits group.
