Assiniboine Credit Union announces executive retirements

Admin — Tue, 13 May 2025 14:00:00 GMT

Assiniboine Credit Union CEO Kevin Sitka today announced the retirement of Jim Rediger and Joël Rondeau. Rediger and Rondeau joined ACU as Chief Strategic Project Officers following the January 1, 2025, merger of Caisse Financial Group, Westoba Credit Union and Assiniboine Credit Union (ACU). They will both retire in June.

Rediger and Rondeau both enjoyed long and distinguished careers in financial services and the system of financial co-operatives.

Rediger’s credit union career spanned 40 years, starting at SaskCentral — the trade association for Saskatchewan credit unions, where he held several positions — before he moved on to Canora Credit Union as Manager of Lending Operations, and Crossroads Credit Union as CEO. He came west in 2013 to take on the role of CEO at Brandon-based Westoba Credit Union.

Rondeau began his career as a chartered accountant and joined the Caisse populaire system in 1998, where he held roles in finance, operations and executive management before becoming CEO of Caisse Financial Group in 2010. Over the course of his tenure as CEO, Manitoba’s Caisses populaires grew from $800 million in combined assets into a unified body with over $2 billion in assets.

“Joël and Jim leave behind legacies of success for their respective organizations, the wider system of Manitoba-owned financial co-operatives, and ACU,“ Sitka said. “And we at ACU will continue to benefit from the talent and caliber their teams have brought to our new organization, thanks in no small part to their leadership.”

“From the time we started talking about merger, over two years ago, to guiding their organization through the approval process, Joël and Jim displayed an incredible level of commitment and care for their members, employees and communities,” Sitka said.

“It was a distinct pleasure to work with them and I wish them the very best.”
