The announcement follows a record year for the Wirral-based company in 2016, which saw a 102% rise in turnover year-on-year and the BFS team increase from eight to 14.
BFS now anticipates similar growth in 2017.
Steve Barber, managing director at BFS, said: “We have enjoyed year-on-year growth for the past five years, and we expect this year to be no exception.
“Our bid to double turnover obviously becomes more challenging as the figures get higher, but I’m confident that we can once again meet our targets.

“With more deals with high street lenders as well as brokers, accountants and solicitors, we are penetrating new markets with professional services recognising the far-reaching benefits of short-term finance.”
BFS completed loans ranging from £25,000 to £1.32m last year.
During this time, the lender also relaunched its Hunters Licence for developers and investors.
Steve added: “We are an incredibly diverse business that works with a broad scope of clients.
“Bringing in new team members, including two regional growth managers, has undoubtedly supported us in exceeding our goals, giving us the infrastructure to evolve further and ultimately take us to the next level.
“We’re excited to head into 2017, collaborating further under existing partnerships, while establishing new relationships across the North and beyond.”
