Call has been with Fifth Third since 2002 and held numerous positions in the Commercial and Retail lines of business before being promoted to president of Fifth Third Bank (Ohio Valley) in 2005. In 2008, he led the integration of the First Charter bank acquisition.

He was chairman of the American Heart Association 2012 Heart Ball and in 2014 chaired the American Cancer Society’s Cattle Barons Ball for Southwest Florida.
Call said, “I am excited about the new role and look forward to leading the Bank as we execute our strategic plan across all Florida markets.”

Lamb will relocate to the corporate headquarters in Cincinnati.
Call said, “Brian has helped build Fifth Third’s reputation in Tampa and throughout North Florida, and has set a high standard for the Bank’s community involvement. I look forward to continuing the great work Brian started.”
