Great Rock Capital, an asset-focused commercial finance company specialising in middle market lending, has appointed Jeffrey Peckitt as Managing Director of Originations.
Peckitt will be based in Toronto and will be responsible for sourcing new investment opportunities to expand the firm’s footprint in the Greater Toronto area and establish a presence in the Canadian markets.
“We are excited to have Jeffrey join Great Rock as we expand into the Canadian market,” says Stuart Armstrong, CEO of Great Rock Capital. “Jeffrey’s depth of industry knowledge, experience, and relationships will be a great asset to the firm, as we believe it’s key to have a local presence in this important market.”
Peckitt joins Great Rock Capital with over 30 years of experience focused primarily on business development at commercial banking and asset-based lending institutions. Most recently he was Vice President of MaynBridge Capital, spearheading originations to middle market companies throughout Canada. He studied at Ryerson University and is a member of the Commercial Finance Association (CFA), the Turnaround Management Association (TMA), and the Association for Corporate Growth (ACG).
“I look forward to joining the Great Rock team to expand their footprint into Toronto and the broader Canadian market,” says Peckitt. “Great Rock’s creative financing solutions bring tremendous value to middle market companies seeking increased liquidity beyond that provided by conventional lenders.”
