In September 2020, Haydock Finance appointed Jon Hercman in the role of head of agriculture, marking the beginning of a new sales channel for the company, Haydock said in a statement.

He has more than 12 years’ commercial finance experience, including roles with HSBC and Barclays.

For the last eight years, Hercman has specialised in agriculture, gaining sector-specific knowledge of dairy, beef and lamb, pigs, poultry and renewables, plus arable and processing.

The appointment will see Hercman lead the delivery and sales strategies while supporting a nationwide introducer market, Haydock Finance said in a statement.

Hercman said: “I have joined a progressive company at an exciting time and I’m looking forward to the challenge of building our proposition in the agriculture sector.

“Asset finance plays a vital role in agriculture so I will be focused on providing our introducers and their customers with the best finance solutions and support in this specialist marketplace.”
