Richard Firth
Advising Partner
I began my journey within the Financial Services industry working in the Banking sector. Upon leaving school in South Yorkshire, I joined the Yorkshire Bank and was able to work my way up from Bank Clerk to Commercial Manager in Business Banking.
Following this, around 30 years ago I relocated to East Yorkshire and left the bank to set up a Financial Services Brokerage at the turn of the century in which I was joined by Neil Davey.
Being fully trained by the bank in aspects of lending, client management, credit risk and securities means that I bring knowledge and expertise to structuring deals for commercial clients as well as years of experience in proposing these cases to lenders of all types.
Outside of work I am a lover of sports, particularly football and both codes of rugby. I have also enjoyed the opportunity to become a fully qualified Rugby Union and Rugby League coach.
