Lucy Painter
Director
With over 20 years’ experience in the financial services sector, I am able to deliver a great customer experience for all our clients, regardless of the deal size, and also ensure that the required business processes remain efficient, effective and compliant. This applies to all stakeholders – clients, lenders, introducers and the team.
Out of the office: My two teenage sons make sure I don’t have much spare time – being taxi driver to them is practically a full-time job! Dog walking, running and pottering in the garden happens if time allows.
Julia Wilkinson
Director
With over 30 years' banking experience behind me, I identify and secure tailored finance solutions for businesses which suit their overall strategy, and ensure their delivery is efficient and simple for business owners. Simply put, I provide businesses with valuable expertise to navigate the complex finance marketplace and make a real difference with the end result!
Out of the office: I enjoy walking, dancing, spending time with my family, travelling to new places and following F1 motor sport.
Debbie Labourne
Business Finance Specialist
I have more than 30 years of business banking experience, latterly working within Business and Commercial Risk and Controls. It’s great to be working alongside other banking professionals and being part of a team who work so hard to support businesses, local to Lincoln and Newark as well as further afield, to access the right finance for their business.
Out of the office: I enjoy travel, crafting, upcycling and recycling, baking, vegetarian cookery, music and spending time with family and friends including Radley, my gorgeous staffie-jack.
Ray Purvis
Founder
As a seasoned asset financier, I founded FUNDING ROUND to provide businesses with excellent service, innovative financial solutions, and empathy for their business needs. As I step back from the business, I know our clients are in good hands with the team. Understanding your business objectives and long-term goals is where I and the team always start.
Out of the office: My dog keeps me out in the fresh air, helping to keep me fit. Otherwise you might find me working on my latest DIY project or on my narrowboat!
Mick Andrew
Property Specialist
Time-served commercial banker, specialising in the real estate sector with a strong track record of adding value to client proposals whilst delivering tailored funding solutions for development projects and investment portfolios (residential, commercial and student accommodation) across Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire and the wider East Midlands - experience really does make the difference.
Out of the office: Alongside Grandad duties, I enjoy most sports (spectating), golf, walking (between pubs), gardening and travelling to a seemingly endless list of places on the bucket list!

Peter Harvey
Associate
I support businesses to access their key financial information quickly and easily, streamlining their finance functions and processes, so they can focus on managing their business. I use my extensive experience in Management Accounting, Forecasting, Cashflow and Budgeting to enable my clients to know their critical financial numbers. Despite my 25 years accounting experience and relevant qualifications, I strive to talk to my clients about accounting in a non-technical way as I know that talking numbers can cause headaches!
Out of the office: When I’m not working, I am usually busy playing with my three children, spending time with extended family or gardening.

Steve Rowell
Asset & Motor Finance Specialist
With a decade of experience in the financial services sector, I have more recently followed my passion and specialised in the Motor Finance Industry, including as Sales Director of the Prestige Vehicle Division at Anglo Scottish Asset Finance. My clients benefit from my wealth of experience in financing both prestige and daily vehicles, offering them effective finance from our panel of lenders. I also support companies fund their business assets (with and without wheels!).
Out of the office: I have always been a petrol head and enjoy nothing more than spending time around high performance vehicles! Founding the National Supercar Owners Club has been a real high for me and I thoroughly look forward to the events we run for supercar owners throughout the year.
