Assetz Capital has stated that Samantha Williamson has joined its regional relationship director team.
She will cover the South Manchester region, working alongside local businesses and guiding them through the borrowing process.
Williamson (pictured) joined the peer-to-peer finance platform from Positive Commercial Finance where she was a business development manager. Prior to this, Williamson also held management positions at RBS and Santander.
Stuart Law, CEO of Assetz Capital, said: “Assetz Capital has its head office in Manchester and as such we know first hand the struggles that local businesses can go through to acquire funding through the more traditional methods.
“The appetite for P2P lending here is growing and Samantha brings a great wealth of knowledge to her role as regional relationship director. It’s going to be an exciting year for Assetz Capital as we continue to grow and Samantha’s experience is invaluable to the team.”
Williamson added: “I’ve worked for many years supporting SMEs around Manchester and believe Assetz Capital offers a much needed solution for those struggling to acquire finance.
“My role will be to raise the profile of peer-to-peer lending throughout South Manchester and to ensure that businesses which gain funding through Assetz Capital are guided through the process.”
