Helena Warne’s Background and Experience

Helena’s first language is Welsh and she has worked at Lloyds Banking Group for the past 15 years, relocating back to her home county of Pembrokeshire to take up the new role.

Raising Awareness of Invoice Finance

Working closely with the bank’s SME relationship managers, she hopes to raise the awareness of invoice finance with current and prospective customers who may be able to benefit from a more flexible facility rather than an overdraft, which is repayable on demand and has a fixed limit.
Helena said “Invoice finance is growing increasingly popular among companies that recognise that it’s a cost-effective means of releasing cash from unpaid bills.

“At Lloyds Bank, we are committed to delivering working capital solutions that support UK firms and I’m keen to help Welsh businesses prosper.”
