Reward Finance Group in Manchester is expanding its team further by appointing Christine Daly as portfolio executive, following another impressive 12 months.

Christine joins the SME funder having worked at Bibby Financial Services for more than 13 years where, latterly, she was relationship manager within the trade finance division.

The appointment comes following a record £84m loan book in December for Reward, with an impressive 20 deals completed in January.

Speaking about her appointment, Steve Noble, Reward’s MD for the North West, said,

“We have been very busy throughout the pandemic leading to a number of record-breaking months.

“This is due to a combination of helping SMEs navigate through these turbulent times by injecting additional working capital, while also enabling others to achieve impressive growth by providing the finance to repurpose their businesses or seize opportunities.

“As well as having an excellent reputation for speed and flexibility, we also pride ourselves on our service levels and working relationships with clients.

“We are therefore very pleased to have appointed Christine, who brings excellent experience in this area and a great knowledge of the SME marketplace.”
