Time Finance bolster broker support in the South West with new appointment

Time Finance has appointed Matt Dean (pictured) as broker manager in its asset finance team, focussing on driving support for businesses in the South West.

Dean brings over 12 years’ experience to the role, the last 10 of which in a business development role with Aldermore Bank.

During this time, Dean gained extensive experience liaising directly with brokers and their business owner clients, helping to package facilities that enable investment in vital pieces of equipment.

In his new role, he will continue to strengthen Time Finance’s network of trusted brokers and collaborate with them to fuel business growth and drive investment through various types of equipment financing, such as hire purchase and finance lease.

Dean said: “Having supported businesses of all shapes, sizes and sectors across the South of England for the last decade, I know first hand just how many opportunities there are to help firms in this region.

“It’s a crucial time to be joining the Time Finance team when wider economic challenges leave many business owners in need of affordable funding solutions to support investment plans and help them to take advantage of growth opportunities that arise.

“I’m thrilled to be joining the team. Time Finance is well-known for their wide range of products, responsiveness to broker and customer demands and expert-led teams. I’m excited to put my skills and experience to work to help the team continue to deliver excellence.”

The announcement follows a number of recent appointments and promotions within Time Finance, including Laura Mollett to head of broker sales earlier this year as well as Ewan Clarke to business development manager in the firm’s invoice finance team, further demonstrating the business’ commitment to investing in their people as well as delivering a broad solution to UK SMEs.

Mollett added: “Matt is an excellent addition to our Broker Manager team. We identified the need for a stronger presence in the South to assist brokers in providing flexible and supportive solutions to their clients.

“Matt provides great knowledge that will help us to continually enhance our broker offering as we continue to strengthen our proposition by offering quick, sensible decisions along with market leading service.”
