The move comes following changes in the leadership team which saw David Smith step down and Phil Chesham moving to replace him as head of business vacating his sales leadership role.

Hume steps up to the position having gained 16 years’ experience in the invoice finance sector.  Prior to his 5 years at Positive, he spent time in ABN AMRO Commercial Finance and across its subsidiaries.

Hume said: “I am thrilled to take on this position at Positive and to be now leading the sales team.  Having worked with businesses of all shapes and sizes across a number of different industries for the past 5 years at Positive, I am now looking forward to helping develop the team to support SMEs looking to grow.

“Entering this new role comes at an exciting time, whereby new appointments and structural changes within the company has meant that our team has the opportunity to offer a bespoke financial solution across the UK and support business owners looking to access funding lines between £10k and £1 million to maintain a healthy cashflow”.
