HarborOne Bank announced this week that it added Murray W. Charron to its commercial lending office in Rhode Island.

Charron, who was named vice president of commercial banking, will staff the bank’s Providence location alongside vice presidents Mathew Insana and George Sadler.

“We’re delighted to add Murray Charron to our expanding Providence team,” President and CEO James W. Blake said in a statement. “Murray brings extensive experience lending in the Rhode Island marketplace to HarborOne, which will help connect Rhode Island business owners to a strong bank as they seek to expand, grow and thrive. Murray has the local contacts and the HarborOne support to make that happen.”

Previously, Charron was a senior vice president at Santander, where he also grew the bank’s business commercial lending and in 2012 earned a Sovereign Top Performance Award. Prior to that, he worked for Citibank for six years, lending to small and middle market companies.

Charron has a bachelor’s degree from Appalachian State University.
