Speed and efficiency are key when it comes to bridging and I’m excited to be part of a company that recognises this, as well as one which places product innovation and service excellence at the forefront of everything they do.”

Jon joins Hope Capital just after the firm has celebrated reaching 10 years in business.

Planning ahead for its ambitious future, Hope Capital is currently looking to onboard a wave of new appointments at all levels of the business.
