Crestmark announced the addition of Zachary Martin as VP, business development. He will assist in expanding Crestmark’s California presence by providing asset-based lending to small to middle-market businesses.

Martin will report to Crestmark West Coast region sales manager, Robert J. Parks. Working out of the Los Angeles office, he will be part of Crestmark’s expanding and growing West Region.

Previously, Martin worked with Bibby Financial Services as a VP, business development, where he managed company expansion into Orange County and San Diego. Prior to Bibby, he worked with GemCap Lending, Culver Capital Group, and AgriCap Financial; he also was part of startups of two asset-management companies.

“Zach is a great addition to the Los Angeles team,” said Parks. “We look to further develop the Southern California market as a national working capital provider while using our local approach to doing business. Zach will be a key element to our continued success and we welcome him to the team.”
