“By executing our existing succession plans, we can move swiftly and judiciously while maintaining the chemistry among our senior team and therefore our tremendous momentum,” says Robles in a statement.

The company also named:

  • Melinda G. Reeves—executive vice president of People Services.
  • Shon J. Manasco—chief administrative officer.
  • Michael F. Barry—senior vice president of enterprise integration reporting to Manasco.

Additionally, Kevin Bergner was named president of USAA P&C insurance group. He spent two years as USAA's chief administrative officer prior to his promotion. Prior to joining USAA, he was a major general in the U.S. Army.

Along with the Bergner announcement, the company also named Steve Speakes executive vice president of external affairs.
