Asset Advantage strengthens operations with two new starters

SME funding provider Asset Advantage has expanded its internal team with two new appointments as part of its ongoing growth strategy.

Hannah Berry joins the documents and payouts team as a payout administrator. In her new role, she will be responsible for preparing finance documentation and progressing agreements through to payout. Working closely with underwriting and sales teams, Hannah will help ensure transactions are processed efficiently and in line with governance and compliance requirements, while also overseeing the administration of finance agreements and payments to all relevant parties.

Grace Walker has joined the collections and recoveries team as a collections and recoveries administrator. Her responsibilities will include monitoring incoming payments, supporting the management of overdue accounts and assisting with customer communications relating to outstanding balances. Grace will also contribute to operational reporting and due diligence activities, including credit searches and data analysis.

Gary Thompson, sales director at Asset Advantage, said: “Hannah and Grace are two fantastic additions to our team and help strengthen two critical parts of our operation as we continue to execute our growth strategy and strengthen our proposition.

“The first quarter of this year has proven to be really busy with high demand among SMEs for flexible funding. Even with strong headwinds in the economy, our data suggests that this trend is only set to continue. It therefore makes real sense to bolster our team and bring new efficiencies to meet this demand and best support both SMEs and our broker partners.”
