In Memoriam - Cameron Small 

We are very saddened by the passing of Cameron Small, the former CFO and Group Director of Pepper Financial Services Group. Cameron was not just an executive at Pepper, he was a beloved member of the team who played an integral role in developing the company into the global credit management firm and consumer lender that it is today. His legacy will continue to live on, and his contributions to the company will never be forgotten.

Cameron's dedication and expertise helped Pepper to expand its reach to countries spanning Australia, New Zealand, UK, Europe and Asia. He was instrumental in developing and implementing strategies that led to the success of Pepper including supporting the growth of Pepper Advantage since its inception in 2011.

On a personal note, Cameron was a true professional who always brought his best to the job. Beyond that, he was a kind and caring individual who helped others achieve their personal goals. His contributions to our team and the industry will always be remembered, and he will be missed dearly. 

Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time. Cameron's legacy at Pepper will continue to live on, and his dedication and hard work will be remembered by all who knew him.
