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.
“A & H CARLISLE LTD have used Mulberry Asset Finance since 2012 and I can’t speak highly enough of Mike and his team, they have helped our business grow and their knowledge of a customer needs is impressive. They are always competitive and quick to react to our needs. I wish Mulberry Asset Finance continued success and hope to do business together for many years to come.”
Alan Falder, Managing Director, A & H Carlisle Ltd“Mike at Mulberry Asset Finance worked incredibly hard and quickly to secure my first Hire Purchase deal. As a new company I was finding it difficult to obtain finance to grow my business. He provided me regular updates, which took a lot of the pressure and nerves out of the situation. With the finance clearing very quickly, I was able to put my GrandMA3 to work straight away - supporting The Eagles on their final EU tour. I will certainly use Mulberry’s services to continue growing the business.”
Rowan Bulman Ltd“I have used Mulberry Transport for ten years. They provide an excellent service for my business and I can access finance to buy the various wagons, machinery and other equipment that I need to run my business. Finance is agreed and arranged within one week, I highly recommend Mulberry Transport.”
Jimmy Dickinson, Director, J Dickinson Transport 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 am always grateful for the honest advice that I receive from Mike Robinson at Mulberry Asset Finance & his straightforward approach. It is refreshing to deal with a company that can communicate clearly & who genuinely wants to do the right thing for my business. I will definitely use Mulberry Asset Finance again & I highly recommend their services.”
Scott Burton, MD, Scott Burton Timber Harvesting“Cubby Construction is a client of Mulberry Asset Finance and have always found the team to be obliging, highly efficient and willing to go that extra mile in order to help us achieve our goals.”
John Cubby, Managing Director, Cubby Construction Ltd“I have used Mulberry Asset Finance several times for the Hire Purchase of coaches. I have always found their speed of operation and personal attention very satisfactory and I would not hesitate to use them again in the future.”
Barry Pickthall (JB Pickthall Coach Operator)“I was very pleased I chose Mulberry Asset Finance to work with on my new poultry business. The whole deal was arranged quickly and, most importantly for me, they did exactly what they said they would do and on time. It is very satisfying to work with people who give you a good deal and who you can rely on.”
