Well-known banker joins ThinCats in the East Midlands
ThinCats, the Ashby-based lender, has appointed Andy Cocker as director of regional business development for Yorkshire and the East Midlands.
Cocker was recently headed up the Nottingham office of AIB, but has moved following its withdrawal from the GB commercial market.
At ThinCats, Cocker will be responsible for supporting deals across South Yorkshire and the East Midlands.
Mike Hackett, head of sales, ThinCats: “Already well versed in the SME lending space, Andy is known for his ability to add value to a management team and shape deals. He will be a strong addition to the ThinCats team. Andy will be working closely with local business leaders to deliver sustainable funding solutions for mid-sized SMEs across the region.”
Cocker added: “Now is the ideal time to join ThinCats as its strong existing team, pragmatic approach to deals and bold strategy mean it is well placed for the next phase of its growth. I’m looking forward to supporting businesses throughout South Yorkshire and the East Midlands to achieve their goals.”
