“We need businesses to feel confident and to invest in growth if we are to support growth in the UK economy.”
Sancus is currently undergoing a period of sustained investment, which includes regional expansion.
The supply chain finance provider has facilitated more than £570m of funding to SMEs and in addition offers two specialist finance products for educational institutions.
Richard Whitehouse, sales director at Sancus Finance, said: “Jennifer will bring fresh perspective to the team having seen the challenges that firms face when trading with firms outside the UK.
“With the UK economy continuing to experience uncertainty in the aftermath of the Brexit referendum and the recent general election, we want UK businesses to know that we are fully committed to supporting their financing needs and growth plans.”
