Optimum Finance promotes Green to senior regional sales director
Invoice finance specialist Optimum Finance has appointed Paul Green to the role of senior regional sales director.
In the role, Green will support Optimum Finance’s national head of sales Iain Hendry in “guiding and helping to further grow Optimum’s sales team”.
He will be based near Leeds, and while it is a national role, he will have a focus on the North of the UK.
Green has worked at Optimum Finance for around three years as regional sales director, focusing on the Northern regions.
Before that, he worked as a commercial business development manager (BDM) for RBS Invoice Finance for nearly six years.
Prior to that, Green was at HSBC for just over eight years, initially as a business specialist, then as a business development associate, and then as a BDM.

Iain Hendry said: “Paul’s promotion recognises his contribution to the business, and we look forward to seeing him support us in reaching new heights.”
Green added: “As an industry, we hold the keys that can unlock funding for vast numbers of UK businesses, many of which may not even know that invoice finance exists.
“Businesses need to ensure that they receive the right type of funding at the right time, and invoice finance can play a pivotal role in this. I’m looking forward to taking this new position and helping even more amazing UK businesses.”
Optimum Finance made a duo of hires earlier this year, bringing on Hazel Hastings and Savannah Smith as account executives.
