Shawbrook Bank has appointed Kevin Flowerday as its head of technology finance.

A spokesman for Shawbrook said that Flowerday had been brought in to drive the technology focus of the bank’s asset finance department.

Flowerday was the head of professional lending and technology finance at United Trust Bank (UTB) for over two years. At UTB, he spearheaded the bank’s development of its finance technology products.

UTB’s technology finance department, created in May 2015, runs alongside UTB’s established offerings of secured asset finance, property development and bridging finance and professional lending.

Flowerday began his career at HSBC in retail banking in 1994, before moving through sales for an educational supplies business, entering asset finance at Syscap as sales manager in 2001.

He worked as Syscap’s director of public sector finance and as Syscap’s head of direct sales before moving to UTB in 2014.
