Jenny Doering was chosen to lead Compeer Financial’s animal agriculture division in 2022, after successfully leading the firm’s home mortgage division as vice president for many years. Colleagues say she’s a confident decision-maker and doesn’t shy from a challenge. Working from the Mankato office, she oversees a team that provides services to swine, dairy, and other livestock producers. She’s also working with fellow Compeer leaders to develop a new culture blueprint for the $30 billion cooperative. Doering is currently spearheading an enhanced loan process initiative to increase automation and add value for client farmers, producers, and agribusinesses. She’s a mentor to others across the organization and lends her expertise outside the company, participating in several animal agriculture trade groups. She is the chair-elect of the Minnesota FFA Foundation board.
