“I am extremely excited to be back in Oxford and also back with Trustmark,” McCraw said about his promotion. “I have worked in Oxford before, so this position was definitely a great fit and opportunity for me.”

McCraw currently serves as commercial relationship manager and has an extensive background history of experience in banking and commercial lending.

“While my background is primarily in commercial lending, Trustmark is a full-service bank with a broad product offering that will allow us to service the financial needs of the community,” McCraw said. “I worked for Trustmark about 15 years ago at the headquarters in Jackson so I am thrilled to be back on board.”

McCraw says that he sees growth not only in his future but in the bank’s future as well. 

“Although we are a well established bank with a rich history in Mississippi, we are fairly new in this market so I see great growth potential for us in Oxford,” McCraw said.
