On April 23, Dallas-based Texas Capital announced several executive leadership appointments that, according to the bank, “are designed to scale the firm’s clearly differentiated platform in its next phase of growth.”
Jeff Hood has been appointed managing director/chief human resources officer. He joins Texas Capital from Citizens Financial Group with more than 25 years of leadership experience across human resources and financial services. In his new role, Hood will lead Texas Capital’s human capital strategy, overseeing talent, leadership, organizational effectiveness and total rewards to enable business performance, innovation and growth. He will report to Rob C. Holmes, chair, president and CEO, and will serve as a member of the firm’s operating council.
“Success going forward requires us to move from a transformation-focused structure to one engineered for speed of decision-making, commercial agility and frontline empowerment,” Holmes notes. “This leadership model strengthens accountability across the organization and enables our teams to respond more quickly and effectively to the needs of our clients.”
As part of this broader leadership alignment, Texas Capital announced the following changes:
- John Cummings has been named chief operating officer. In this role, he will continue to oversee Texas Capital’s retail branches, operations, corporate real estate, corporate security, community development, marketing, events and communications functions.

- Matt Scurlock, Texas Capital’s chief financial officer, will also assume the role of president of Texas Capital Bank, further aligning financial, operational and business leadership across the organization.
