BH Financial Services recently announced the appointment of commercial lending specialist, Leigh Taylor, during a time of unprecedented growth and success for the company.
BH Financial was set up as part of the BH Group in 2015 and is a sister company of one of the region’s leading full service commercial and residential property agencies, Bradley Hall Chartered Surveyors and Estate Agents.
The firm specialises in asset finance, business finance, acquisition funding and property development finance.
1.How would you describe your role?
My role is to help business clients in getting the best deal from their Bank, or to support clients in negotiating the best deal from any finance provider. This ultimately provides the funds they need to continue or expand the business, which could include purchasing new equipment or premises or training their workforce.
2. What is the most interesting part of your job
I enjoy meeting new people and finding them a solution for their business. The initial stages of going through the details and finding the best finance provider and deal for them is always really rewarding.
3. How did your career start?
From leaving school I worked at Lloyds bank for 38 years, becoming Regional Director for SME businesses. I climbed the career ladder while building my experience, and believe I am proof that hard work does get rewarded.
4.How does BH Financial differ from other financial firms?
We offer a personal and bespoke service which is unlike any other. We are also able to offer competitive rates for clients as our fees are paid by the financier. The team has a wealth of experience and has successfully supported hundreds of clients across a variety of projects, so client’s cases are always in the best hands with us.
5.How is the current economic uncertainty surrounding Brexit impacting the finance industry?
I have not experienced much evidence of any impact. In fact, the finance market is seeing new entrants all the time and the choice for the client is now much more than previously. It is great to see so many new lenders in the market place.
6. What do you think the future with hold for BH Financial?
I think certainly the geographical reach and presence of the firm will expand. The reputation of the firm is strongest in the North East which I believe will filter out into the wider North and Midlands as our client base grows. I also predict that BH Financial will become one of the go-to finance brokers nationally.
