Siemens Financial Services (SFS) has welcomed new sales manager, Sally-Anne Whybrow, to its healthcare team as the company looks to strengthen its focus on the private healthcare sector.
As well as more than 60 years of combined sales experience, the team boasts specialist credit risk, asset, customer service and legal knowledge.
While SFS continues to serve the public healthcare market, it has highlighted several areas of the private sector for future focus including veterinary, hospitals and GPs, laboratories, pharmaceuticals and life sciences.
Under the leadership of Chris Wilkinson, head of sales for healthcare and public sector, Whybrow and the rest of the team are focusing on building on SFS’s already-strong reputation in these private healthcare areas.
Asset finance solutions such as leasing are gaining popularity with private healthcare organisations as a cost-effective investment enabler.
Such financing solutions spread the cost of the equipment over an agreed financing period, with monthly finance payments arranged to align with the expected benefit of its use, such as improved operational efficiency. This removes the need for a large initial outlay, thereby improving cash flow and working capital.
Wilkinson said: “We finance healthcare technologies from a wide range of equipment manufacturers, including Siemens.
“At a time when credit access remains restricted, the financial support we provide is vital to companies and private practices seeking to grow and expand their businesses.”
