White Oak Commercial Finance (WOCF), an affiliate of White Oak Global Advisors, hired Brendan Harrison as managing director, originations. Harrison will leverage his deep experience in asset-based lending origination to further bolster WOCF’s leading middle market ABL platform.
Prior to joining WOCF, Harrison was a senior vice president at Citizens Business Capital, where he was responsible for originating ABL transactions across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions.

“We’re thrilled to have Brendan join the WOCF team and strengthen our ABL origination capabilities,” Tom Otte, CEO of WOCF, said. “Middle market borrowers continue to turn to private lenders for a more flexible capital partner, and Brendan will help White Oak continue to deliver on this opportunity for investors.”
“I’m excited to join White Oak and represent the Northeast market for ABL and Factoring solutions,” Brendan Harrison, managing director, originations at WOCF, said. “I look forward to collaborating with new and existing partners to help clients unlock additional liquidity and drive sustainable growth.”
