Pinnacle Financial Partners welcomed a new Memphis president when longtime West Tennessee banking leader Phillip May joined the firm. He will work with Memphis Chairman Kirk Bailey to lead Pinnacle’s commercial and retail banking team and recruit more top-tier local financial professionals. May is based at the main local office on Shady Grove Road. May comes to Pinnacle with 25 years of experience in commercial and corporate lending, nearly half of that as a Memphis and West Tennessee CEO or president. In 2007, after years as a corporate banking executive for firms like SunTrust and Regions, May helped found Metropolitan Bank in Memphis as an alternative to the big banks that dominated the market. He spent 10 years as its Memphis CEO. Under his watch, the bank grew local assets to more than $700 million to become one of the highest-performing banks in its peer group.
