Arvest Bank appoints chief compliance officer

Huffaker has more than 25 years of banking and regulatory experience, including more than five years at Arvest, where she was hired as a compliance senior manager. In her role as chief compliance officer, Huffaker is responsible for the development and implementation of Arvest’s enterprise-wide compliance program and oversight of the related compliance managers and teams.

Huffaker’s promotion comes less than a month after Arvest promoted former chief compliance officer Cara James to chief risk officer. James replaced Bob Kelly, who retired after more than 30 years with Arvest, effective Dec. 31.
