Promise bolsters commercial team

Marc Biddle, who joins with almost 20 years’ experience in the industry, will head up the department which specialises in all aspects of commercial finance including high street mortgages, specialist  mortgages, bridging facilities, asset finance and invoice factoring, development loans and unsecured business finance.

The appointment comes after a successful year for Promise Solutions which has seen the commercial arm of the firm experience considerable growth.

Managing director Steve Walker says:

“Marc first worked for me at Purple Loans back in 1997 and has since gone on to work with some of the leading names in the banking industry. I am delighted to be working with him once again and look forward to seeing him use his expertise in commercial finance to further grow the commercial department.”

Biddle’s career has included roles at Barclays, Santander and Lloyds Banking Group. Most recently he was commercial finance specialist at a leading commercial brokerage.

He says: “I am really excited to work with Steve again. This is a hugely exciting time for commercial finance and I’m very much looking forward to using my skills and knowledge to make Promise as highly regarded for commercial finance as it is for second charge loans and specialist mortgages.”
