For more than 40 years, Joe Iantosca has helped financial institutions and

change, and improve organizational performance. Combining executive leadership
experience with practical business insight, Joe partners with CEOs, executive teams,
and boards to turn strategic vision into measurable business results.

In 2019, Joe founded Tosca Associates to provide executive advisory services to organizations navigating growth, transformation, mergers, operational improvement, and technology modernization. His approach is collaborative, pragmatic, and focused on delivering sustainable business results rather than theoretical recommendations.
Beyond his consulting practice, Joe serves as a Senior Advisor and Board Member for TetherView and as an Advisory Board member for EazyML and Vikar Technologies. His leadership roles include terms as Chairman of the Board of Trustees for CentraState Healthcare System and Chairman of the New Jersey Council on Economic Education, providing him with broad governance and board-level experience.

Whether advising executive leadership, guiding a complex merger, modernizing technology, or improving operational performance, Joe brings the perspective of an executive who has successfully led organizations through change—and understands what it takes to deliver lasting business value.


CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Michael O'Loughlin
From the first day I met Joe, he established himself as a pivotal leader of CentraState's Healthcare Foundation-currently Secretary/Treasurer of the CentraState Healthcare System's Board of Trustees. With his amazing "can do" leadership approach, he motivated hospital staff, board members, and his colleagues at OceanFirst Bank to support the Hospital's capital campaign. Always one to back up his word with action, he held a tremendously successful reception at his home for major gift prospects, and served a paramount role to establish CentraState's OceanFirst Rehabilitation Center.
Christopher Leo
I worked with Joe and for Joe on different occasions and positions. Joe is a great manager and pays attention to detail. Joe is very astute with business, technology and banking. He is one of the few leaders that I worked for that doesn’t make it feel like a job and makes you feel more like family. Joe has the unique ability to run, manage and oversee any positions within a firm like technology, finance, legal, sales, account management, conversions and operations. He has all of the qualification and deserves to be CEO in any organization that is lucky to hire him.
Tom DeCarlo
Joe Iantosca is a true Banking professional. His leadership skills are second to none and his knowledge around bank processing, conversions, and technology would be an asset to any organization. Joe is an "out-of-the-box" thinking executive who isn't afraid to roll up his sleeves and dive right in when he needs to. A great person to have on your team.
