Ultimate Finance strengthens Northern presence with new hires

Asset-based lender, Ultimate Finance, has strengthened its team in the North with two new hires. 

The lender has promoted Michael Beer, who has been with the business for 10 years, to sales director for the North.

Other recent additions include Sarah Harrison as a regional director in the North West and Steve Armstrong who joined the team as an underwriter dedicated to the Northern region. 

Michael Beer (pictured) said: “The North has a vibrant business finance community and as part of my new role I have been spending time gaining feedback and insight from introducers on what they need from Ultimate Finance. Our regional service model allows us to deliver exceptional customer service and build strong relationships with our clients and introducers. My initial focus has been to strengthen the team by bringing in new hires to bolster an already established and high performing team to support growth ambitions.

“Sarah and Steve’s appointments have strengthened our presence in this important region as we continue to build upon an impressive H1 performance which saw us achieve our highest ever half year results with new business growth up by 44% on the same period last year. We are actively recruiting in the North West, Yorkshire and Scotland to further bolster the team and continue our growth trajectory."
