About | Mulberry Asset Finance

At the heart of Mulberry Asset Finance is our passion to support and assist small to medium-sized businesses. We visit all our customers at their premises, so we can get to know them as individuals, find out what makes them tick and see first hand how their business operates.

This provides us with a valuable insight into the business and we can then discuss their financial requirements in more detail and find out exactly what assets they may need to enable their business to develop and expand.

We then do what we are good at: sourcing the correct type of finance for the customer which will allow them to hopefully grow and flourish!

Name three words that describe you

I will have to ask my wife on a good day. I’m hoping she would say: relaxed, energetic, & fun!

What do you do at Mulberry Asset Finance?

I work with all our customers on an ongoing basis to help them access the most competitive asset finance. I liaise closely with a fantastic panel of highly reputable funders who are keen to assist SME's in financing all kinds of assets. Despite Brexit, we are now starting to expand, and we are recruiting and training an excellent team of people at Mulberry who have expertise in the various sectors in which we operate.

What is the main issue that your clients have that you would like to fix?

Our customers work extremely hard building their businesses, but all too often they don't receive the necessary financial support and advice to help them consolidate and grow. SME's do not normally have a designated Financial Controller and therefore the owners can get side tracked into a lengthy process of trying to obtain finance. Mulberry Asset Finance work closely with them to arrange finance on their behalf, saving them time and money.

What do you think are the best skills that you bring to your job?

Hard work, honesty and transparency.

What do you like about working at Mulberry Asset Finance.

I love the freedom and the fact that we can really make a difference. I just love working in Cumbria, the landscape, the creativity, there are some truly fantastic businesses across the industry sectors. I love meeting all the owners and operators throughout the County who have a real passion for their business. If I can take all the pressure of them by arranging their asset finance, then that's just great!

What are the values that drive you?

I think trust, honesty, integrity and loyalty are vital not only in business, but in life. My strong Christian faith has given me a solid base on which to build my life and despite many ups and downs along the way, I am still smiling and loving life!

What are you happiest doing, when you're not working?

Walking in the Lakes with my lovely wife, followed by a nice lunch and a pint. Going to watch Leeds United, I have been a supporter for 50 years & am a season ticket holder. Following Leeds I’ve seen a few ups, but so many more downs!

If you could be anywhere other than here, right this minute, where would you be?

Sat watching Leeds in the Premiership. Or Corfu town.

Fiona Keen Marketing & Development

I started working for Mulberry in 2012 and my role has naturally developed over time. I initially started learning the ropes about asset finance, working with our existing customer base whilst reaching out to new businesses.

Name three words that describe you.

Creative, dynamic and fun.

What do you do at Mulberry Asset Finance?

I started working for Mulberry in 2012 and my role has naturally developed over time. I initially started learning the ropes about asset finance, working with our existing customer base whilst reaching out to new businesses. I am based at our Middlesbrough office where I attend events and visit the fantastic businesses that we have in the region. The majority of my time is now spent on strategy and marketing, putting the things in place that we need in order to help more businesses!

What is the main issue that your clients have that you would like to fix?

Business owners are so busy managing the day-to-day running of their business, there’s very little time left to shop around for commercial finance. And with so much to consider, people understandably want to take the easy road. This could mean sticking with the same finance provider or perhaps even putting up with poor service simply to get the job done. I'd like to help businesses access the best possible finance whilst saving them time and money.

What do you think are the best skills that you bring to your job?

I’m experienced and knowledgeable in all aspects of asset finance across our industries. I can quickly identify what a customer needs and make recommendations as to which of our solutions will fit their requirements. I really enjoy problem-solving, building relationships and getting to know all aspects of a business.

What do you like about working at Mulberry Asset Finance?

I love the fact that no two days are the same! My role is so varied, I’m constantly developing my skills in all areas. The customers really are the stars of the show though and I love getting out to meet them!

What are the values that drive you?

Integrity, kindness and a sense of community are close to my heart. I believe that by involving ourselves in the community we can all make a positive difference. So, it’s fantastic to have a job that helps small to medium-sized businesses thrive, as the wider community also benefits from their success!
