Dave has spent his career building relationships and securing new business. Working within the financial services sector his entire career he has spent time growing entrepreneurial SME businesses and leading sales teams for multi-national banks. His recent focus has been centred around fundraising for SMEs enabling them to fulfil their ambitions of growth and productivity in a benign lending environment. 

Dave heads up the sales team across London and the South from the London office, overseeing the growth of ThinCats’ loan book.

Prior to joining ThinCats, Dave led all new business across London for Santander, serving SME businesses. He previously worked at RBS helping build the partnerships book at RBS Insurance (Direct Line) leading up to their IPO.

Scott joins us from Clydesdale Bank, where he spent over 12 years in financial services covering retail, private and business banking, with the last 5 years spent supporting both the Origination and Portfolio management of Acquisition and Leveraged Finance clients.

Scott is responsible for supporting the execution of lending transactions within the business community alongside the London and South East team.

Greg has a diverse blend of SME expertise across direct lending, special situations and distressed turnaround investing, which he believes enables ThinCats to take a unique approach.  Undertaking fundamental value analysis on each opportunity, with appropriate appreciation for downside protection, allows ThinCats to approach each deal with a commercial understanding that many competitors are unable to replicate.

Greg is involved with all aspects of the investment process from identifying and refining credit mandates, assessing opportunities as a member of the investment committee, running the credit team, and portfolio management.

Greg has over 15 years’ experience on the buy-side across a wide range of products with more of a focus on the SME end of the market. His wide-ranging experience is born from financial institutions such as ESO Capital, Sun Capital Partners, Barings and KPMG.
