WFG National Title is strengthening its executive leadership team with three key appointments aimed at supporting continued growth, scaling operations, and expanding its national footprint.

The company announced that Shaun Gonzales has been named chief operations officer for its direct operations division, while Noah Blanton will serve as chief growth officer. In addition, Josie Hyde has been promoted to an expanded regional leadership role.

According to the company, the moves are part of a broader strategy to reinforce its leadership bench and position the organization to operate more efficiently while accelerating market expansion.

WFG National Title Insurance Company, part of Williston Financial Group, is a national title insurer operating in 49 states and Washington, D.C., with business lines spanning direct title operations, agency operations, and enterprise solutions. The company provides title insurance, escrow, and settlement services tied to residential and commercial real estate transactions.

WFG is also one of a limited number of truly national title underwriters, competing across the broader real estate and mortgage ecosystem, with a focus on streamlining the closing process and improving transaction efficiency.

The company said the latest leadership changes reflect a deliberate emphasis on developing talent from within, as it looks to enhance long-term performance and execution across its national platform.
