Background
Peter Carbonara, Jr. is a Partner and the Chief Financial Officer of TJC. The firm says he joined TJC in 2007 and is part of its Operations, Technology & Governance group.

He holds a B.S. in Accounting from St. John’s University, is a certified public accountant, and is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
TJC, formerly The Jordan Company, was founded in 1982 as a middle-market private investment partnership focused on leveraged buyouts and recapitalizations. The firm says it works with CEOs, founders, entrepreneurs, and management teams across a range of industries, with offices in New York, Chicago, Miami, and Stamford.

- TJC seeks established middle-market companies with enterprise values of $100 million to $2.5 billion across multiple industries.

- TJC looks for “good businesses and good operating partners” with management teams that can help drive long-term success.
- TJC’s Resolute VI fund, closed in January 2024 at $6.85 billion, aims to invest in well-managed, profitable companies with enterprise values from $100 million to $2 billion, with a focus on operational improvements, organic growth, and add-on acquisitions.
