Challenger bank chooses Leeds for invoice finance division

ALDERMORE Bank has set up a new office for its Invoice Finance division in the heart of the financial district of Leeds.

The Leeds office houses 30 staff who have relocated from the bank’s former premises in Cleckheaton and the team is set to grow as the office becomes Aldermore’s central hub for invoice finance in Yorkshire and the North East.

Damon Walford, managing director of invoice finance at Aldermore, said: “It’s important that we do everything we can to make it as easy as possible for our clients to do business with us. The new office will mean we’re easily accessible and the strong talent pool in Leeds will ensure we recruit and retain the highest calibre of staff.

“Leeds has a thriving financial district and Yorkshire and the North East has so many great SMEs looking to grow. It is the perfect place for us to do business.”
