DF Capital appoints new industry leader
DF Capital today announced that it has hired Ian Martin as industry leader – motorhomes and caravans. Working alongside Corvin Baks, Ian will be responsible for developing the business’ position as a leading provider in this leisure sector.
Ian joins from Blackhorse Finance, where he spent almost 33 years in senior sales management roles. Throughout his time there, he looked after the company’s key manufacturer and retailer relationships, oversaw the leisure division’s portfolio and maintained full credit oversight of the profit centre.
Ian said: “I am thrilled to join DF Capital. It is an ambitious, driven company and an innovator in its field. Working for an organisation that is relatively young and wants to expand is a massive draw, as is our strong commitment to customers and the industries they are in. Our personal touch makes us stand out in the market and I’m eager to get started.”
Andy Stafferton, chief commercial officer, commented: “Ian brings a wealth of expertise and management experience to DF Capital and we are lucky that he has decided to join us. His leisure sector knowledge – both wholesale and retail – is impressive and we look forward to being able to harness his insight and his network to further grow our business in this industry. Ian’s appointment further consolidates DF Capital’s desire to recruit the best people in the business in order to help provide more customers with crucial funding facilities and help them grow and prosper. Welcome on board, Ian!”
