Karen Blanchard joins Time Finance as relationship executive
Time Finance is pleased to welcome Karen Blanchard to its invoice finance team as a relationship executive.
Karen brings over 40 years’ experience in the financial services industry. During her time as an accounts assistant for Tower Cold Chain and Purple Turtle, Karen developed her skill set and expertise in account reconciliation, relationship building and credit management.
In her new position, Karen will be responsible for nurturing relationships with a broad portfolio of clients, overseeing their Invoice Finance facilities and identifying opportunities to support their growth plans with enhanced facilities.
Speaking of her appointment, Karen comments: “It’s a great privilege to be joining Time Finance; the team has an excellent reputation in the industry and are widely respected for their relationships with both broker and client. I look forward to taking on this new challenge, and being part of a dynamic and customer-focused business is all the better.”
Karen is the latest in a wave of recent appointments at Time Finance. The alternative lender recently welcomed Luke Froude as Relationship Manager, and Wayne Spratt as Business Development Manager, to further invest in its Invoice Finance offering, team and client services.
Charlotte Holley, operations manager at Time Finance, added: “We’re pleased to welcome Karen to Time Finance. With so much experience in the financial services industry, she’ll bring invaluable knowledge to the business. Karen’s ambition for a fresh challenge is admirable and we’re excited to see her take on this new role and strengthen our relationship management team.”
Invoice Finance can relieve the pressure on cashflow and give businesses the freedom to grow. By releasing up to 90% of the value of unpaid invoices, businesses can access additional working capital and use the funds to support day-to-day cashflow requirements or fuel investment plans.
