The new team will support the business’s strategy, led by managing director, Sean Neville.

“The depth and breadth of experience of our new team, combined with our existing asset finance expertise is a testament to our growth strategy, which saw us almost double new business volumes in 2022 alongside 20% growth in our portfolio in the same period.”
