London-based small business lending platform Funding Circle has appointed Greig McEwan as its new chief technology officer (CTO).
Funding Circle appoints new CTO
McEwan boasts more than 20 years’ experience and most recently served as CTO at European freight-forwarding firm Sennder. He was also previously CTO at Paddy Power Betfair and a technology strategy consultant at WorldRemit.
In his new role, he will be tasked with further developing the company’s technology as it looks to scale.
Funding Circle CEO Lisa Jacobs says technology and data “is the crux of everything we do” and the firm’s next phase of growth “is all about building scale and transforming the business into a multi-product platform”.
The move follows the company’s appointment of Bruno Tavares as VP of engineering earlier this year.
The company also signed a lending partnership worth £700 million with Florida-based Bayview Asset Management earlier this month to help boost its support of UK small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
