SME lender Dynamoney welcomes new CEO, Brett Thomas
Strengthens growth ambitions and signals expanded offering
Dynamoney, a leading commercial finance provider for Australian SMEs, has today appointed senior financial services executive, Brett Thomas, as CEO.
With over 25 years’ experience in commercial lending, Mr Thomas joins at a time of substantial growth for the specialist SME lender. Dynamoney has grown its loan book by 50% in the past year, underpinned by wholesale lending partnerships with two major Australian banks.
Mr Thomas spent the past decade at specialist commercial lender Wells Fargo, most recently leading the business as Managing Director, ANZ. Prior to that he spent 16 years at GE Capital as a Commercial Leader.
Dynamoney Executive Chairman and current interim CEO, Greg Woszczalski, said the appointment strongly positions Dynamoney to continue to maximise the significant growth opportunities in the market and to further its mission of backing Australian SMEs and powering their success.
“We have a growing national footprint and to have someone of Brett’s calibre lead our high performing team is a significant milestone for the business and signals our intent to continue our strong growth trajectory,” Mr Woszczalski said.
“The commercial lending market continues to be reshaped, with alternate, specialist lenders disrupting the status quo by offering more tailored and flexible funding sources.
“Brett brings the expertise, leadership, and industry knowledge needed to take advantage of this disruption and guide the business through its next phase of growth. We see significant opportunities to further expand our breadth of clients, grow our lending footprint, and position our product offering to support even more Australian SMEs.”
Dynamoney was founded in 2015 with a clear purpose to support the heartbeat of Australia’s economy - small and medium-sized businesses. It provides a comprehensive suite of SME financing solutions from equipment and asset financing to business lending, lines of credit, and insurance premium funding.
Commenting on his appointment, Mr Thomas said his focus will be on improving operational simplicity, process excellence, and fostering a strong, people-first culture, setting the business up for long-term sustainable success.
“I am thrilled to be joining Dynamoney at such an exciting time in its journey. The business has a strong foundation, a talented team, and a clear purpose in supporting the growth of Australia’s small and medium-sized businesses,” Mr Thomas said.
“SMEs are the lifeblood of Australia’s economy, making up over 97 percent of all businesses. Having grown from a small business ourselves, Dynamoney has a unique understanding of the challenges and opportunities that SMEs face every day. We are laser-focused on becoming the SME lender of choice and helping these businesses with expert guidance and relevant technology-led solutions.
“As we look to the future, we will continue to innovate, ensuring our products, processes and systems meet our customers’ evolving needs. I look forward to working alongside the team, our partners, and customers as we accelerate and shape the next chapter for Dynamoney, our brokers, and our customers.”
