Peter Savage, Managing Director

Peter's career in leasing and finance began when he worked for the leasing division of a car phone group.  He left to form a leasing and finance company before, in 1988, founding Fineline Media Finance which developed into the largest specialist broadcast finance company in the UK, with a turnover of £45m a year.  In addition to funding groundbreaking equipment (it was the first company in the UK to finance Avid and Lightworks editing equipment) the company experienced 10 years of balance sheet and profit growth while he was managing director.  In 1998 he sold a majority stake to Five Arrows Leasing Group Limited (part of NM Rothschild & Sons) and, in 2003, he sold his remaining shares.  He has wide experience and knowledge not just of finance but also of financial and business management, having managed many typical situations faced by growing businesses.  He established Azule in September 2004, bringing with him clients he had worked with for 17 years.  Married with two children, he is a licensed tennis coach.
