Shire Leasing chief executive officer Mark Picken said: “This is an exciting time for Shire Leasing. Not only have we expanded, but we have also appointed a respected and invaluable figure from within the asset finance industry to oversee its success.”
Shire Leasing said Julie Henehan, who joined in February 2019 as corporate development director, will lead the southern office.
Picken said: “Julie has joined Shire at a pivotal time in the company’s evolution and brings with her a wealth of experience and a strong network. The southern presence has already attracted commendable talent, Julie included, but it will also prove beneficial as we continue to grow and support our base of technology vendors across the UK.”
Henehan said: “Shire Leasing is a progressive organisation built on a foundation of leading market experience and I’m delighted to be joining the team. We have the agility to respond quickly to changing market needs and the expertise to execute effectively.
