Home » About us
Mesa Financial was born out of the frustrations the directors observed whilst working in a high street bank. The banks were moving away from their traditional relationship approach and were delivering a ‘computer says no’ service across the whole bank. By taking away the people you then take away the bloodline of a business.
Mesa Financial was created to deliver a relationship led service to sit between our clients and the bank, advising clients with complex lending requirements. Our mission was to deliver value with every interaction whilst making finance simple and understandable.
Mesa Financial is a one of a kind advisory business that advises on high value borrowing transactions.
We believe it is our duty to make finance understandable and our mission is to deliver the absolute best lending solutions for our clients’ circumstances by creating value with every interaction.
We only work with the most talented advisers. We are pro-active and responsive at all times, even when delivering tough messages. We are committed to each other and trust one another implicitly.
Our word is our promise and everyone’s word is equal. Along with all of this our biggest commitment is to enjoy each day.
Always uncover the lessons when challenged, pressure is a privilege
Treat everyone with the time and respect that you expect to be treated with
Find inspiration in your surroundings
Understand what people need and find what others don’t
