Freedom Finance recognised as a key employer

Commenting on the achievement, Rupert Webb, Chief Executive at Freedom Finance, said: "Our staff are our greatest asset and are key to the continued growth, development and success of the Group. We are delighted to have been acknowledged by the Sunday Times, particularly as the list was compiled following interviews with our employees."

Freedom Finance’s UK operation employs more than 400 people at its offices in Wilmslow. It has grown rapidly over the past 12 months increasing profit from £3.1 million EBITDA in 2002 to £6 million EBITDA in 2003 and is projected to hit over the £10 million mark at its year end in April 2004. Freedom Finance’s recognition in the best 100 companies to work for follows the company being placed 6th in the North West in the Sunday Times Fast Track 100 last year.

Freedom Finance also has offices in Spain and Sweden and is currently assessing opportunities to open offices in other European cities.
