Built by operators. Run as a lender.

Damian Hackett has spent over thirty years leading commercial transformations in sports, media, and transport, with a consistent focus on how capital actually functions inside a business - not just how it is structured around one.

As GM and Country Manager for Orbea in the UK and Ireland, he took the brand from outside the top forty, with approximately £1.5 million in annual revenue, to a top-five position generating over £30 million. Working alongside a specialist asset finance provider, he was instrumental in delivering the cycle industry's first dedicated retailer stocking finance programme - navigating significant resistance, and demonstrating exactly how the right facility, properly structured, transforms the way manufacturers and dealers manage liquidity and inventory risk.

That experience produced a clear conviction: businesses in seasonal, asset-heavy industries do not simply need access to capital - they need capital deployed with genuine operational understanding. Last Mile Capital was founded to deliver exactly that. MBA-qualified and experienced across both the operator and financial sides of complex commercial environments, Damian brings direct, proven experience of what good finance actually looks like in practice.

Sue knows what good capital does inside a business. A Fellow of CIMA, CGMA and FMAAT accredited, with a BA (Hons) in Business Studies and over two decades of financial leadership across corporate, start-up, and SME environments, she has built her career on a single principle: finance is not just about the numbers, it is about what the numbers make possible.

Most recently Finance Director of a specialist asset finance business, where she spent six years on the Senior Leadership Team. Before that, she ran her own consultancy working directly with start-ups and SMEs on management accounting, financial strategy, and specialist growth projects. Her earlier career spans healthcare, manufacturing, defence, and technology - a breadth of commercial exposure that supports our customers and allows us to speak with authority across multiple industry verticals.

Sue leads our Credit Assessments and oversees all funding, accountancy, and financial operations within Last Mile Capital.

Andrew brings over twenty-five years of experience in advertising, marketing, and brand-led business growth, having founded and scaled agencies across South Africa and the UK. His expertise spans brand positioning, go-to-market strategy, and operational oversight.

Andrew contributed directly to the marketing strategy and building the brand infrastructure for a specialist finance business from an early stage - giving him a practical understanding of how financial services businesses need to communicate to both commercial and institutional audiences. At Last Mile Capital, Andrew leads marketing strategy, brand development, and the software architecture underpinning our customer-facing systems.

Josh leads revenue generation, channel development, and customer acquisition for Last Mile Capital - responsible for pipeline development, distributor relationships, and contract conversion across our target markets.

As part of the senior sales team at a specialist asset finance business, Josh brokered a significant number of the facility agreements that defined that business's growth. He has maintained those relationships through the transition and is actively re-engaging the established customer base on behalf of Last Mile Capital. That continuity of relationship is a material commercial asset.

Jack leads brand execution, creative direction, and commercial communications across Last Mile Capital - responsible for marketing assets, digital platforms, and partner-facing materials.

Jack built the corporate identity and produced the sales collateral for a specialist asset finance business, giving him direct experience of translating a complex financial services proposition into clear, compelling storytelling. He understands the specific challenge of making specialist finance legible to the audiences that matter.
