The North West-based lender welcomed 200 guests to the Marriott hotel in Manchester for an evening filled with live entertainment, a three course dinner and a charity auction which raised over £25,000 for children’s charity Cash for Kids.
During the evening deputy CEO Gary Jennison detailed the lender’s ‘amazing growth story’ and its plans to increase its lending book to over £2bn in the next five years.
Directors Marc Goldberg and Gary Bailey also highlighted the Group’s commitment to the broker market, its entrepreneurial spirit and the passion and dedication of its 360 employees.
The Group attributes much of its success to its employees, having grown its staff numbers by 50% in just five years and moved into new, larger offices.
Marc Goldberg, board director at Blemain Group, said:
“We’re celebrating our 40th anniversary with a wave of optimism as we welcome new, talented staff members to the team almost weekly, whether it is underwriters, sales staff or customer service advisors.
“A hidden gem for over 40 years, we’ve battled one of the worst recessions in history and come through it as a successful lender. Despite huge success we’re still extremely hungry for further growth. The passion and dedication of the team here means our service and product offerings are constantly evolving to meet the needs of our changeable, dynamic marketplace.
“We would not have been able to embrace the success we’ve had without the continued support of our brokers and intermediaries. Our honest and transparent relationships with our partners mean we are able to be highly responsive to the market and continue to provide them with competitive and efficient finance solutions for their clients.”
“The next five years are going to be the most exciting yet - the best is still to come.”
