HIGHTSTOWN, N.J. — Sharon Dilling, the lead spokeswoman for the New Jersey Credit Union League, is leaving to become director of marketing at a New Jersey medical school, it was announced today.

In a separate development, it was learned HR Value Group of Middleton, Wis. has been picked to conduct the search for a new president/CEO, a job vacant since April following the departure of Robert S. Walls.

“This is a time to move on to take advantage of a once in a life opportunity,” said Dilling, who has been director of marketing and communications the last three years. Her last day on the job was today, stating that she starts with Touro University College of Medicine in Hackensack as director of marketing and community affairs July 2.

League directors were meeting today and thus, officials were unavailable regarding Dilling's replacement or to confirm the HR Value contract.

Managing league operations most recently in a follow-up to the Walls' dismissal has been Tom Griffiths, the retired president/CEO of the Iowa Credit Union League.
