(West Des Moines, Iowa – January 12, 2026) — Bank Iowa today announced two key leadership changes in the metro area. Erik Moen, formerly a commercial relationship manager for the bank, will now serve as community bank president with responsibility for the $2 billion family-owned bank’s Johnston location. Ryan Jensen, the bank’s newest mortgage loan officer, will serve the central Iowa community from Bank Iowa’s Altoona location.
With nearly 20 years of experience in private and business banking in the Des Moines area, Moen has led teams across a range of community banking institutions. Throughout, his focus has been on building trusting relationships that ultimately help people reach their financial goals.
Jensen actually began his banking career with Bank Iowa in Northeast Iowa in the late 1990s. From there, he spent more than two decades in the financial and real estate industries, holding influential positions within top-tier enterprises, including Principal Financial Group, USA Mortgage and Re/Max Precision.
Both Iowa natives, Moen and Jensen are long-time financial services professionals with an added passion for volunteering. This makes each a good fit for Bank Iowa, which aspires to be a center of influence in its communities.
Jensen, a former small business owner and entrepreneur, founded the community networking group, Brewing Up Business. He continues to lead the organization as a volunteer today, connecting professionals and local small business owners to help them grow and achieve the goals unique to each member. Every Brewing Up Business meeting also spotlights a local non-profit, giving the causes an expanded platform for sharing their mission.
For his part, Moen contributes leadership, coaching and financial expertise as a board member for the Central Iowa Fellowship of Christian Athletes, a volunteer at The Mission Church and a youth softball coach.
With more than $2 billion in assets, Bank Iowa ranks as one of the leading independent ag banks and the second-largest family-owned bank in the state. Farmers, families, and businesses access Bank Iowa’s products and services through more than 20 locations, as well as online and on mobile devices. To learn more, visit bankiowa.bank. Member FDIC.
