Before becoming a Regional Account Manager at Bluestone, Alec spent the majority of his finance career working on the funding side at banks and large lenders.

Having done this for a while, Alec desired to get more involved with the clients Bluestone were supporting so he could help provide finance solutions to the business issues of clients and partners.

“I love having conversations with business owners about their companies, the issues they are having, and designing solutions to help them resolve these problems. Working as a broker at Bluestone allows me to do this.”

The early days

Alec grew up in a beautiful small town called Marlow in Buckinghamshire. During his younger years, Alec spent a lot of his time on the Rugby pitch playing from the ages of 9-17.

When Alec left school, he went to the University of Portsmouth and studied International Relations.

“Whilst at University I joined the school’s American Football team but found it took up too much time from my academic work to stay on the full 3 years.”

The world of work

Alec started his career working for a large IT reseller. Having found success there, he decided he wanted to make a move into the Charity sector. 

After a few years of working in the charity world, Alec decided it was time to move back into the Private sector. Around this same time, Alec was headhunted to work as a Relationship Director for Close Brothers bank. 

Since then Alec has gone on to work at a couple of large funders managing their brokers and introducers as well as designing and implementing new funding products for their sales teams. 

Alec plans to continue to use his years of experience to help Bluestone’s clients to choose the right options for their businesses.
