In this role, Quinn will be responsible for the operations of a team of 115, providing leasing in office equipment, telecoms, IT, and healthcare.
Quinn said the market for technology finance had “high growth potential,” as businesses switched to a usership model for acquiring assets.
He said: “As businesses realise the sustainable and cost-effective benefits of financing hardware and software rather than outright purchase, IT equipment funding solutions are on the rise.”
Jean-Michel Boyer, UK chief executive officer at BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, said: “We’re pleased to announce Mike’s appointment as the new head of technology services.”
