Expanding Our Team
In September, we welcomed Henry Pyatt as our inaugural Community Impact Operations Officer. Henry has deep roots in the community development ecosystem, and we’re grateful he decided to join our Community Impact Team to scale and grow the work for our company. Throughout his career, Henry has spent time in leadership positions in community and nonprofit organizations, local government, and most recently as the Pennsylvania Community Affairs Officer for the FDIC.
The lens that Henry brings to our company is vital as the bank continues to grow. In his new role, Henry will be responsible for managing our portfolio of community development loans, investments, and services, as well as helping guide our goal planning and reporting function of the bank. A city planner by trade, Henry brings a thought process to the work that prioritizes building strong communities through economic development and supporting small businesses in underserved neighborhoods as a foundation of success and catalyst for growth.
“Access to capital is a critical element of community revitalization — for businesses, residents and community serving organizations alike. I'm proud to join the Community Impact Team at First Commonwealth and to be a part of the bank's proven commitment to creating that access in ways that help improve the lives of our neighbors.”
