This investment follows the introduction last year of new decision software designed to process a higher percentage of customer applications automatically plus the introduction of e-agreement technology that allows customers to e-sign motor finance agreements.
Chief executive Paul Burgess said: “These two recruitments will allow Startline to realise its ambition of enhancing its position as the most forward thinking and technologically advanced lender in its space.
