Wirral-based Bathgate Business Finance appoints new business development manager with 13 years’ experience in the leasing industry
Wirral business finance firm Bathgate Business Finance, has appointed leasing specialist, Rachel Berry, as a business development manager.
Ms Berry brings more than 13 years’ experience in the leasing industry to Bathgate’s growing team, garnered in her role as a new business and account manager for Lombard Vehicle Solutions and ALD Automotive.
In her previous role, Rachel worked with SMEs and large corporate organisations in the professional services sector to deliver fleet services. Her understanding of leisure and light commercial vehicle customers and specialism in asset finance brings new skills and connections to the Bathgate Business Finance team.
Despite challenging economic conditions, Ms Berry joins the West Kirby-based Bathgate team just a few months after the appointment of property specialist, Ben Humphreys. She said: “Bathgate Business Finance is a well-known, professional company with an outstanding family feel and I am excited to be joining the team.
“I hope to use my expertise in the leasing sector and key contacts within the financial industry to support the company’s growth and develop new funding offers, while also diversifying my skills into new sectors.”
Bathgate managing director, Gordon Andrews, added: “Rachel’s expertise and connections within the leasing industry and her understanding of leisure and automotive customers will further diversify our offer.”
