Close Brothers Invoice Finance, part of Close Brothers Plc, has joined up its north and south businesses to form a unified UK structure, leading to a number of new leadership roles.
Ian Steward, previously managing director of Close Brothers Invoice Finance North, has been appointed managing director of Close Brothers Invoice Finance UK. Ian brings to the role a wealth of experience both as a regional managing director and as a board director.
Fiona Parkinson and George May become commercial directors for the north and south respectively. Both are highly experienced leaders at Close Brothers and are now taking increased responsibility in their respective regions. The two will report directly to Ian alongside Paul Aspray and Andy Leopold who continue as regional heads of commercial sales.
