In her new role, Aitken will help expand the company’s reach across the South, leveraging her established network of brokers to onboard new clients and enhance the lender’s volume of business.

Aitken said: “I am excited to be rejoining the industry as a broker manager, especially given my experience on the other side of the deal as a broker.

“I am looking forward to implementing this industry knowledge to help grow the Time Finance brand – they are clearly on an upward trajectory with the recent opening of their new Birchwood office, so it feels like the perfect time to join the business.”
