Charles Hodge joins us as Business Development Director

28 January 2021

We are delighted to announce that Charles Hodge has joined us as Business Development Director. His role is to build relationships with intermediaries and businesses involved in providing procurement services for high net worth individuals and families.

Charlie has had a long and successful career in the high end hospitality and concierge sectors. He was the founder of Quintessentially South Africa in 2004 and on his return to the UK in 2010 he began consulting for family and private offices specialising in lifestyle management and luxury asset acquisition. He was also VP at luxury asset lender, Borro.

Charlie said, “I am excited to join Suros Capital and bring their proposition to the HNW community of intermediaries. Suros represents a terrific opportunity for individuals to generate funds quickly for acquisitions, or to pay for unexpected financial calls that need immediate settlement. Approaching banks for funding can take too long or be rejected out of hand for those who are temporarily cash poor but asset strong. Using the Suros facility means that short term funding can be put in place as quickly as an asset valuation can be arranged and then repaid over the term of the loan.”

Our Director, Ray Palmer, commented, “We are delighted to welcome Charlie to Suros. His experience of luxury asset finance and procurement for the HNW sector and impressive list of intermediary contacts, allied to his passion for providing a personal hands-on service, can only benefit Suros Capital and our customers as we build on our successful launch in November last year.”
