Ballast Rock, the diversified investment management firm, announced that it has named Max Jackson as Managing Director, Private Credit Portfolio Manager, at Ballast Rock Asset Management.

In this newly created role, Jackson, who is based in San Francisco, will identify, diligence, and source private credit and development capital opportunities as well as lead merger and acquisition advisory.

“Private credit has been among the fastest-growing segments of financial services, and we believe we have identified an attractive niche to explore these opportunities on behalf of our investors,” said Simon O’Shea, Chief Investment Officer of Ballast Rock. “Max has the right experience to help us increase our footprint in this important segment.”

Prior to KeyBanc, Jackson worked at MVP Capital and Fifth Third Securities. Before his career as an investment banker, Jackson was senior auditor in Deloitte’s audit practice for four years, where he provided assurance services to both private and public companies with over $1 billion in revenue in the Retail, Green Tech and Financial Services industries.
