Bibby Financial Services (BFS) North America announced that Daniel Rodrigue has rejoined the company as National Head of Sales for Factoring and Transportation for the U.S. market, a significant step toward executing BFS’s strategic growth plan.

Rodrigue previously served as BFS’s head of sales for the Southeast region until 2013. He brings nearly two decades of experience driving sales for various financial platforms. Most recently, Rodrigue served as national sales director of TAB Bank where he was responsible for building their national sales team including a focus on transportation companies. Previously, he oversaw sales staff and deal production for First Growth Capital’s factoring and asset-based lending divisions.

“We are excited to have Daniel back at BFS where his wealth of industry knowledge and experience will be invaluable in driving our business development efforts,” said Ian Watson, CEO of BFS North America. “He will build on the excellent momentum achieved by our sales teams this year as we continue to expand and grow our market leadership in factoring and transportation.”

In addition to working closely with BFS North America’s executive leadership to grow factoring and transportation business lines nationally, Rodrigue will also oversee the expansion of the company’s regional sales presence in the U.S. BFS is committed to supporting small and medium-sized businesses throughout North America by expanding access to the financing and back-office support they need to successfully operate and grow.

“BFS’s international reach and customer-centric approach is filling a void in the commercial finance space,” said Rodrigue. “I am thrilled to rejoin BFS and lead such a passionate and enthusiastic sales team. The collaborative culture, strong executive leadership and exciting growth prospects made this an irresistible opportunity.”
