Born and raised in the heart of the Lake District, I’ve always had a strong connection to the local community. After completing my degree in Accounting and Finance, I brought together my academic background and the hands-on experience gained from working in my family’s business from a young age. This early exposure gave me a real insight into the day-to-day realities of running a small or medium-sized business - the pressures, the potential, and the passion it takes to succeed. I'm excited to be part of the team at Mulberry, where I can put that experience to work in supporting SME clients across the region.
Born and raised in Cumbria, I’ve always had a passion for supporting local businesses. After several years working as an Executive Assistant and a few adventure-filled years living in Australia and New Zealand, I returned home in 2024 to launch my own freelance business helping small businesses with Business development and Marketing. Now with Mulberry Leisure, I’m combining my organisational skills, creativity, and love for the Lake District to help grow our online presence and build strong connections across the local hospitality community.
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.
“We have used Mulberry asset finance on a couple of occasions as we continue to invest in processing equipment for our company, we have always been more than happy with the service provided by Mike and the team. The process is always hassle free and Mike is always in contact throughout. We will definitely be using Mulberry again in the future.”
James Hill, Director, Enviro-metals Lancaster Ltd“Dundee Tyres Ltd is a tyre recycling company based in Carlisle, we needed a new machine to continue our expansion and Mike Robinson from Mulberry Asset Finance was on hand to assist. Our needs were specific and complex as the machine was sourced from overseas and was bespoke to our needs. The purchase went smoothly, and I would not hesitate in recommending Mulberry Asset Finance to any other Cumbrian Businesses.”
Simon Pluckrose, Managing Director, Dundee Tyres Ltd“I had a coffee coaster with Mulberry Asset Finance on and decided to get a quote from them along with two others. They responded immediately with a quote. They gave a personal touch, whilst remaining competitive and efficient. I have now used them twice and found them a delight to deal with.”
Dale Benbow, Benbows Bros. Timber“Mulberry Asset Finance have looked after my business loan and finance requirements for quite a few years now - and I trust them implicitly to find me the best deal they can, in the shortest time and with the least amount of hassle to myself. We've financed whole pub refurbishments through to small kitchen equipment and many things in between. There has never been a hitch or a delay and everything is conducted with the utmost professionalism and with a genuine interest in my business. I really can't recommend Mulberry Asset Finance highly enough... ”
