SME funder One Stop Business Finance (OSBF) has expanded its client servicing team with the appointment of Carey Scargill as business development manager for South and West Yorkshire.

Scargill (pictured) joins OSBF from Shawbrook Bank, where she was a new business analyst, and brings with her more than seven years’ experience from across the financial sector, including working with clients faced with distressing financial situations.

Other roles have been spent in debt management with RBS Group and Lombard Asset Finance, where she was an assistant relationship director.

She said: “I am really pleased to be given the opportunity to work alongside Andrew and the One Stop Business Finance team, and I will certainly learn a lot from what they have achieved so far in making the business the success it is today.

“This role is a great chance for me to develop further, step out of my comfort zone and put my experience to the best use to help SMEs arrive at the right funding solution, whatever goals they have.”

Andrew Mackenzie, One Stop Business Finance managing director, added: “When I first met Carey at a Shawbrook event last year I was instantly impressed, so it seemed like a golden opportunity to ask her to join our team when I heard she was available. We’re delighted that she has decided to join the team.

“OSBF is entirely committed to its business development manager model and, as a result of our continued profitable growth, we anticipate a number of additional appointments throughout the UK over the course of 2020. We are, therefore, looking forward to the team expanding further this year as we support more clients than ever.”
