3rd September 2025

Global credit management and technology company Pepper Advantage has announced two new appointments.

Brendan Twomey joins as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and the promotion of Gary Stockley, formerly Chief Information Officer, to Chief Product Officer (CPO).

As CTO, Twomey has 25 years’ experience delivering complex tech strategies for UK commercial and scale-up banks, specialising in leading financial services businesses through periods of change and expansion. Most notably, he played a pivotal role at 10x Banking, the cloud-native banking platform, where he was instrumental in scaling the company’s technology architecture, building out its product pipeline, and delivering enterprise-grade solutions for innovative financial institutions worldwide. Prior to 10x Banking, Twomey held senior roles at Lloyds Banking Group and the Royal Bank of Scotland, where he led large-scale transformation initiatives and modernised legacy systems.

Stockley joined Pepper Advantage in 2019 as Head of European Systems. In 2022, he became Chief Information Officer, leading the firm’s IT and data transformation teams. Prior to joining the business, Stockley worked for over two decades in the mortgage and loan industry, holding senior technical and client services roles. 

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.”
