Phoenix Health and Safety are delighted to announce that Alex Kent will be joining us as Business Development Manager on the 7th September.

Alex joins us from Barclays Bank, where he was employed as a Corporate Business Manager. He worked with Small and Medium companies for 5 years and has over 10 years banking experience. After becoming his regions top performing personal banker he was promoted to a Branch Manager and was the youngest Bank Manager in the Midlands at the age of 22. He managed 2 different branches over 3 years and generated a significant amount of new business for the bank whilst providing excellent customer service. Both branches were internally classified as top performing within Barclays.

From the age of 25 to date,  Alex worked at West Bromwich Branch helping businesses develop by supporting clients with their finance and banking requirements. He dealt with a select portfolio of established businesses and managed a lending book of £12.8m.

Alex’s new role at Phoenix will involve developing new business revenues, as well as maximising the customer service provisions to our existing customers. Alex said, “I am passionate about giving all our clients an exceptional service and, alongside my colleagues will be there for you as much or as little as you need us to be. Thats why I want to ensure all our clients have everything required to “Tick all the right boxes” with their H&S requirements. After all we’re in business to help you take care of yours!”

Managing Director of Phoenix Health and Safety, Nick Higginson, said, “Persuading a top performer from Barclays such as Alex Kent to join us is a significant coup for Phoenix Health and Safety. I am certain that Alex will be instrumental in improving the service to our existing clients, as well as developing many new business streams and further accelerating the continued growth of the company.”

Welcome Alex!
