Truro-based Ignition, a leading UK provider of vehicle and asset finance for SMEs, is welcoming a new broker manager to its expanding team.

Mike Bossom is joining Ignition’s broker finance department, bringing with him 38 years of industry experience. Mike spent most of his early career with Capital Bank as branch manager, then area manager. Since 1998 he has managed a number of small finance companies in various financial sectors, latterly specialising in the broker market.

Ignition has grown substantially since its acquisition by STAR Capital Partners last year, with a series of new appointments helping to consolidate its reach across the UK. Alan Tutte, managing director of Ignition said: "We’re delighted to have Mike on board. He brings with him a wealth of experience in asset finance, and will no doubt prove to be invaluable in strengthening our broker finance offering.”
