Evans, who has 12 years of experience in the finance sector, including as a vendor flow team leader at GE Capital and an eTools business analyst, said her ultimate aim is to “continue to make things flow smoothly for customers”.
Brown said: “We have been reviewing how our teams are structured to support clients and ensure our customer service runs as efficiently as possible. We are also in touch with our customers for feedback to ensure we address anything they feel could be improved or simplified.”
Mark Catton, group chief executive of Henry Howard Finance, said: “We are also committed to upholding the high standards that have put us in this enviable, successful position. These new posts reflect that commitment. I have no doubt our new team members will have a positive impact on our customers’ experience.”
