DF Capital expands team to support business leisure customers

DF Capital, a Manchester-based specialist bank, has expanded its Leisure team with the appointment of two new members to support the Group’s expanding customer base and the strong demand in this sector.

The DF Capital Leisure team is headed by Managing Director, Ian Martin, and looks after 45 manufacturers and over 500 dealers and holiday parks.

Richard Kerr has recently been appointed as Relationship Development Manager to help deliver first class service to the Group’s dealers and manufacturer partners. Kerr has over eight years of experience in the asset funding industry, having worked with a diverse clientele, ranging from relatively new, small businesses to established, large corporations. Kerr’s role as Relationship Development Manager will see him continue this strong emphasis on helping to providing tailored solutions that align with the specific needs of customers across the Leisure sector.

In addition, DF Capital has appointed Rosie Clarke to join the Leisure national client management team. Clarke joins the team from DF Capital’s savings team where she completed an apprenticeship programme, in line with the Group’s focus on career progression and talent development.

Ian Martin, Managing Director of Leisure at DF Capital, commented: “We pride ourselves in delivering outstanding personal service for our existing customers and as we continue to grow as a business. Expanding our Leisure team is a vital part of journey as we move from strength to strength.

“We continue to invest in and develop our existing local talent, providing a progressive environment and fostering social mobility. This enables us to work towards our core business goals in having an engaged team and putting our customer needs first.”
