The high-level executive changes at Credit Acceptance continued this week.

About three months after chief executive officer Brett Roberts announced his retirement, the subprime auto finance company said through a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that chief legal officer and corporate secretary Charles Pearce is making a similar move.

Credit Acceptance said Pearce decided to retire from the company effective Dec. 31

The company also indicated Pearce submitted his resignation from his current positions effective June 30. At that time, Credit Acceptance said Pearce will assume the position of special assistant to the chief executive officer to assist with transition pending the effectiveness of his retirement from the company.

And Credit Acceptance already put that transition in motion.

Contained in the same SEC filing, the company said it appointed Erin Kerber, who currently is serving as senior vice president and assistant general counsel of regulatory compliance, to succeed Pearce as Credit Acceptance’s chief legal officer and corporate secretary effective July 1.

Credit Acceptance recapped that Kerber joined the company in 2010 as a litigation manager and was promoted to director of regulatory compliance in 2012. She was named vice president of regulatory compliance in 2014 and assumed her present position in 2018.

The company added that from 2003 until joining Credit Acceptance, Kerber was an attorney with the law firm Dickinson Wright PLLC.
