PRESQUE ISLE, Maine — Katahdin Trust announced the promotion of Janet Doak to assistant vice president, retail services officer and branch manager of the bank’s Ashland and Presque Isle locations.
Based out of Presque Isle, Doak replaces Diane Green who retires May 1. In her new role, Doak will be responsible for retail lending, business development, and the daily branch management of the bank’s offices in Ashland and Presque Isle.

Doak has held several positions with the bank since joining in 2005 as a traveling retail services assistant. In 2007, she became a customer service representative in Presque Isle, then was promoted to branch manager of the Katahdin Trust Ashland branch in 2015, a position she’ll continue to hold in addition to her new role as branch manager for the Presque Isle bank.
“Janet has a tremendous work ethic, is knowledgeable, and is ready to serve the customers of our Presque Isle branch,” said Billi Griffeth, regional vice president, retail services. “Janet is a valuable member of our team and I’m excited to announce her promotion.”
