One Culture







At Peapack Private, we encourage all employees to contribute to our corporate culture.


It is a culture that embodies care for each other, our clients, and our community. The Cultural Ambassador Committee (CAC) represents the voice of our employees, and members of the CAC are dedicated to creating an exceptional employee experience. The CAC helps to ensure that our team members feel appreciated, respected, and heard.

The Cultural Ambassador Committee consists of five sub-committees, including:

  • Volunteerism
  • Diversity & Inclusion
  • Wellness
  • Environmental Leadership
  • Employee Fun
Each of these committees provide ongoing communication and lead events that promote the evolution of our culture.

Team members from all departments and at all levels of responsibility are involved, engaged, and take ownership in different initiatives. As an employee of Peapack Private, you can make a difference in both your community and in the lives of those you work with every day. Learn more about our commitment to diversity and inclusion.
