Celebrating personal achievement in the industry is the AFC Outstanding Achievement Award 2023 where a team or individual has been recognised by its organisation or by its industry partners for outstanding success in some aspect of their work during the past year. This award provides a unique opportunity for an organisation to recognise the star performers in their business or for suppliers to recognise talent in the organisations they work with.
Receiving a nomination for the AFC Outstanding Achievement Award 2023 is Louise McIntosh, Head of Asset Finance Operations at United Trust Bank (UTB) for her project management of the implementation of Alfa Start in 2022.
The project was delivered in 21 weeks, from start to finish, which included both the implementation of Alfa Start and the integration with ADP / Lending Metrics / Lexis Nexis for auto-decisions. This was an industry-first to go-live on Alfa Start including middle office functionality.
All of this was achieved against a backdrop of record-breaking lending volumes in UTB's asset finance business and whilst maintaining industry leading service levels in this area.
Nathan Mollett, Head of Asset Finance at UTB said, “Louise somehow balances high quality service in "business as usual" operations with managing a very ambitious change agenda.”
