Pam Greenstein, TORONTO – I’ve now finished my first few months at Peakhill Capital as our Senior Vice President of People and Culture. What an amazing experience it’s been so far!
I came to this newly created role with experience in other industries, namely Retail, Gold Mining, Non-for-Profit and Technology. Commercial Real Estate is new to me, and I’m loving it. In my short tenure, I’ve already learned so much by meeting with employees one on one, asking questions, participating in various discussions, and joining a CREW meeting (Commercial Real Estate for Women, who knew that existed?? YAY!!). I look forward to understanding so much more in the coming weeks and months.
The word I would use to describe what it is like to work at Peakhill Capital is “refreshing”. It’s fast paced, entrepreneurial, creative, hard working and fun. Everyone comes to the office each day, and that is an incredible change from working remotely for the last 3+ years. It means that we can help each other with questions in real time, discuss and agree on how best to proceed on a project, and debate issues. It also creates a lighthearted and learning culture. The healthy snacks help too, as well as bagels and cream cheese on Friday mornings when we gather to share ideas about the business.
I commend Harley Gold and those who joined him in the early days of the company for building an inspiring place to work. There is so much that Peakhill Capital offers, it is not only a place to roll your sleeves up to learn about the business and industry, and a great office work environment; but it also offers the chance to attend company sponsored charity events, meet people in the community to grow your network, and participate in an RRSP matching and Parental Top Up programs. In five years, the company has grown to over 70 employees, spread across Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver. We are hiring in almost every department, given our demonstrated success and demand. What a great time to join!
