Appointments eCapital appoints Amanda Bowman as Head of Sales for Transportation Group Published: 10th October 2025 Share eCapital Corp., a tech-enabled specialty finance provider serving small and midsize businesses across North America and the United Kingdom, has named Amanda Bowman as Head of Sales for its Transportation Group. In her new role, Bowman will report to Melissa Forman-Barenblit, President and Head of the Transportation Group, and will lead the division’s sales organisation with an emphasis on client success and advancing eCapital’s focus on simplifying access to working capital for transportation businesses. “Amanda’s leadership is grounded in one guiding principle, putting the client at the centre of every decision,” said Forman-Barenblit in a statement. “She brings exceptional energy and expertise to the role, along with a deep understanding of what drives client confidence and loyalty. eCapital is already a leader in transportation finance, and Amanda’s ability to align people, process, and performance around client outcomes will help ensure we continue setting the standard for partnership and service in this industry.” Bowman has more than 15 years of experience in commercial and transportation finance. Since joining eCapital in 2021, she has held increasingly senior positions, most recently serving as Senior Vice President and Sales Director. In that capacity, she oversaw sales strategy, expanded market relationships, and mentored high-performing teams. Before joining eCapital, Bowman held leadership roles at Love’s Travel Stops and Bibby Financial Services, where she built sales infrastructures aimed at anticipating client needs and accelerating business outcomes. “For me, everything starts and ends with the client,” Bowman said. “The transportation industry is driven by people who work hard, adapt fast, and expect their financial partners to do the same. I’m proud to help lead a team that truly listens, collaborates, and delivers, supporting our clients’ businesses today and positioning them for what’s next.” Beyond her responsibilities at eCapital, Bowman serves on the International Factoring Association (IFA) Advisory Board, contributing to the advancement of best practices in commercial finance and promoting collaboration across the industry.
