First Bank is pleased to announce the appointment of Larry Jackson as its new Chief Credit Officer, effective April 2025. Jackson will be based at the bank's Greensboro office located at 101 N Spring St.

Larry brings over 21 years of extensive experience in the financial services industry, with a distinguished career focused on credit risk management. He joins First Bank from PNC, where he most recently served as market credit executive.

"We are incredibly excited to welcome Larry Jackson to First Bank's leadership team," said Adam Currie, CEO of First Bank in a press release. "Larry's deep expertise in credit risk management, strong leadership skills, and high character will be instrumental as our bank continues to grow. We are excited about his homecoming to the Carolinas. I also want to thank Mike Brower for building an incredible credit culture at First Bank over the last decade and wish him the best in his well-deserved retirement later this fall."

Jackson expressed his enthusiasm for his new role in a press release, stating: 

"I am very excited about the opportunity to work alongside this leadership team in continuing to grow a phenomenal community/regional bank. It's truly rare to find a financial services firm that aligns so closely with my own personal values in how we approach the market and our customers. I look forward to contributing to First Bank's continued success."

A native of Reading, Mich., Jackson earned his Bachelor's in Business Administration with a focus on Management from Spring Arbor University in 2004. He will be relocating to Greensboro this summer with his wife and four children. Beyond his professional achievements, Jackson is deeply committed to community involvement.

First Bank is the banking subsidiary of First Bancorp and is headquartered in Southern Pines, North Carolina, with total assets of approximately $12.1 billion.
