Paragon has appointed Alan Timms as regional sales manager and Kat Schorah as assistant relationship manager

Timms has been in the industry for 28 years, cutting his teeth as an account manager in the retail motor finance sector before moving on to work in commercial vehicle and general asset finance at financial institutions including Royal Bank of Scotland and Hampshire Trust Bank.

Schorah will be one of the key contacts responding to enquiries and proposal queries for non-regulated wheeled asset specialist business introducers after a career in the motor and fleet industries including at Venson Automotive Solutions and Scania.

Paragon’s sales director for vehicle finance Dale Trenam (pictured) said: “These new appointments are set to strengthen the vehicle finance team further with the experience and knowledge that Alan and Kat have had in the industry.”

Paragon’s Vehicle finance team prides itself on having expertise in operator and hire fleet funding for commercial vehicles in the recovery, haulage and self-drive hire sectors.
