Valley Bank

Valley Bank CEO and chairman Robbins is leading the financial institution into the future while keeping true to the company’s roots as a local bank. In an ever-evolving digital and mobile world, Robbins strives to create a stronger, faster, more efficient and more responsive organization.

His vision for success is building a purpose-driven organization, which includes embracing innovation, being customer-centric, promoting social responsibility and empowering Valley’s associates. Since assuming the role of president in 2017, the bank has grown from $29 billion in assets to $62 billion.

Those results have been accomplished through organic growth as well as by acquisitions of Oritani Financial Corp., Bank Leumi USA and Westchester Bank.

Robbins serves on the board of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, the New Jersey Bankers Association, the New York Bankers Association and the Jewish Vocational Service of MetroWest NJ; and he is on the Morris Habitat for Humanity Leadership Council.
