TD Bank, with U.S. headquarters in Cherry Hill, on Thursday said it appointed Jill Gateman as the new head of middle-market products & services within the commercial bank.
In this key leadership role, Gateman will report directly to Chris Giamo, head of commercial banking, and join the senior commercial bank leadership team.

A passionate champion for diversity, she was a key member of PNC’s Enterprise Corporate Diversity Council and served as the lead DEI advocate for corporate & institutional banking.
Prior to her time at PNC, Gateman garnered over a decade of experience in the private equity and mergers & acquisitions advisory industries, further enriching her strategic capabilities. Additionally, she actively contributes to her community as an executive committee and board member of the Community Food Bank of New Jersey, and she has served on the boards of Family Service of Morris County and the Gill St. Bernard’s School in Gladstone.
