Watts Commercial Finance has hired Matt Grehan as commercial manager for the Midlands and parts of the North West.  

The financial consultancy says Grehan will cover clients in Cheshire, Shropshire and Staffordshire supporting its funding operations, which includes bridging finance, property development and commercial mortgages.  

Grehan has worked as a business consultant for the last four years. Prior to that, he worked for the NatWest for over 13 years, leaving as a senior relationship manager in April 2019.  

He also worked for six years as a Yorkshire Bank branch manager, leaving in December 2005.  

Watts Commercial Finance managing director Phil Gray says: “Matt’s appointment is another huge step in our business growth plans, supporting the increasing demands from our clients across Cheshire, Shropshire and Staffordshire.   

“I personally recruited Matt some 20 years ago for NatWest, so it’s amazing to be working again with such a talented individual. We will continue to recruit experienced individuals like Matt, to provide our ever-growing client base with a balance of industry-leading commercial funding solutions coupled with outstanding customer service.”  

Grehan adds: “I am looking forward to developing further connections in the Cheshire, Shropshire and Staffordshire areas under the Watts brand and strengthening their presence in the area.”
