Work has begun on the £2million redevelopment of Bridging Finance Solutions head office in Wallasey Wirral as the team continues to expand with two new Business Development Managers.
The short term lender will retain its original site, having purchased, demolished and now developing adjacent properties whilst reconfiguring existing buildings. BFS now employs a team of 27 with plans to take on an additional 15 staff in the coming two to three years, including five apprentices.
Marc Simmons and Jon Durie are the latest to join the team. Jon brings extensive experience to his new role, a former bridging finance lender with over 20 year’s experience in the real estate sector, whilst Marc also owns a strong background in finance.
Steve Barber, Managing Director of Bridging Finance Solutions commented: “It’s fantastic to see work finally begin on the exciting redevelopment of our head office. Creating additional space for our growing team is a key element within our growth strategy and I’m really pleased to be able to make the investment in our founding home of Wallasey.
“The appointments of Jon and Marc will allow us to strengthen our reach, both in terms of coverage and through the cultivation of new relationships where we can support short term financing needs.
“We’ve undoubtedly established our sweet spot within the market – sub £2million loans, as well as in the development finance sector – and our objective moving forward is to consolidate our market position and increase our market share as we head into our nineteenth year of business in 2025.”
