Pepper Advantage has announced the appointment of Brendan Twomey (pictured) as chief technology officer and the promotion of Gary Stockley to chief product officer as part of its plans to expand its credit management and technology offering.
Twomey will oversee the development and execution of the company’s technology strategy, including its proprietary PRISM credit management platform.
With more than 25 years’ experience in financial services technology, he previously held senior roles at Lloyds Banking Group and the Royal Bank of Scotland and was most recently at 10x Banking, where he helped scale its technology architecture and product pipeline.
Stockley, who joined Pepper Advantage in 2019, has been promoted from his previous role as chief information officer.
He has played a key role in the development of PRISM to date and will now lead the company’s product strategy for institutional investors, banks and portfolio managers.
Prior to joining, he held senior technical and client services roles in the mortgage and loan industry.
Fraser Gemmell, global CEO of Pepper Advantage, said: “As the credit landscape evolves, the need for intelligent, modular and data-driven platforms has never been greater.
“PRISM sits at the core of our strategy to meet that demand—combining automation, enhanced analytics, and regulatory alignment to deliver smarter outcomes for clients. Brendan’s appointment marks a major step forward in our technology journey.
“His experience at 10x Banking, where he built and scaled cloud-native platforms for some of the world’s most innovative financial institutions, will be instrumental in accelerating our innovation agenda.
“In addition, Gary’s promotion to chief product officer ensures we continue to evolve our product suite with deep industry insight and technical excellence. Together, they will lead the next wave of transformation for Pepper Advantage.”
Both appointments, based in London, follow the company’s acquisition by J.C. Flowers & Co and are intended to support its growth plans across international markets.
