Duke said: “I enjoyed my previous role immensely, but moving to Compass offers more opportunities to progress and broaden my horizons. Compass lends its own money, as well as leveraging offerings from other lenders, to provide competitive solutions. The clincher for me was visiting the head office; the professional and friendly environment blew me away.”

In addition, Hannah Starling has returned to Compass after a period of travel and gaining broader industry experience. Starling will be part of the office-based team specialising in financial services for the construction industry.

The appointments follow the recent addition of Charlie MacDonald, who joined Compass late last year. Together, the team will leverage the company’s expertise to expand support for a wider range of construction sector clients while maintaining the personalised service for which Compass is known.

Mark Nelson, Director at Compass Business Finance, commented: “We’re excited for the future and have started the new year on a real high with these appointments. Our team is crucial to our success. Construction is a central focus for our business. Dedicating more resources, building our support network, and employing three more finance specialists reflects our continued expansion and commitment to the sector.”
