Time Finance has appointed Sophie Aitken (pictured) as broker manager in its asset finance team.
She brings over 10 years of experience in the financial services industry, having previously worked as a broker at Halo Corporate Finance, as internal sales manager at InterBay Asset Finance, and in various roles at Aldermore Bank.
Aitken will focus on working with her established network of brokers to secure new clients and enhance the lender’s volume across the South, while also building relationships with new intermediaries.
Her recruitment followed several appointments at Time Finance, including Andrew Maude as regional sales manager and Matt Heap as head of credit, as part of the company’s investment in its asset finance offering, people, and customer service.
Aitken said: “I am excited to be rejoining the industry as a broker manager, especially given my experience on the other side of the deal as a broker.
“I am looking forward to implementing this industry knowledge to help grow the Time Finance brand – they are clearly on an upward trajectory with the recent opening of their new Birchwood office, so it feels like the perfect time to join the business.”
Laura Mollett, head of broker sales, said: “We are delighted to welcome Sophie to the broker management team here at Time Finance.
“Combined with a couple of other recent appointments, we have built a strong, results-driven team and I am confident Sophie’s appointment will solidify this further, given her previous experience as a broker herself.”
