IGF expands into North West and continues nationwide hiring run
IGF, the leading commercial finance provider for SMEs, is continuing its nationwide expansion programme, introducing a Manchester presence and two new senior hires for the North West and North London & the Home Counties.
IGF’s commitment to provide creative financing solutions to support business growth and working capital is stronger than ever following the expansion of its asset-based lending services earlier this year.
Richard Spielbichler, ABL director, will be leading the North West division from IGF’s new base in the heart of Manchester’s financial district. He joins IGF with 20 years of industry experience, following 12 years with GE Capital and previous business development roles within RBS Group.
Richard Spielbichler, ABL director, North West said:
“The North West boasts a thriving economy, particularly in the manufacturing space. IGF will be providing the local business community with the support and financing it needs to make the most of the region’s commercial activity.”
In addition, Jeff Greenfield joins as ABL director for North London and the Home Counties. In Jeff’s previous roles as director at Santander and corporate sales director at Close Brothers, he has facilitated a variety of funding solutions including management buy outs, acquisitions and refinancing.
Jeff Greenfield, ABL director, North London and the Home Counties, said:
“IGF has proven capability to structure finance to the specific needs of SMEs. I’m thrilled to be part of an entrepreneurial culture and experienced team providing financing solutions of the highest quality.”
Jon Hughes, commercial director of IGF ABL, said:
“Our people’s expertise and passion for supporting business growth is the driving force behind our expansion and ongoing success. With IGF’s increased portfolio of alternative funding options, we’re continuing our mission to provide innovative and dynamic financing solutions to SMEs across the UK.”
