As International Women’s Day approaches, we turn the spotlight toward an exceptional leader within our ranks at Momenta Finance—Daniela Cunningham, our esteemed Head of Monitoring, Credit Control, and Financial Operations. Daniela’s remarkable decade-long journey with us mirrors, and has been central to, our own growth and transformation.
A Decade of Leadership at Momenta Finance – Daniela Cunningham
Daniela Cunningham joined us in 2014 originally as a credit underwriter, today she serves as the head of financial operations. Daniela’s analytical abilities, coupled with an unwavering commitment to ongoing learning, have played a critical role in our growth and success to date.
Jon Stern, CFO of Momenta Finance commented, “She is often the one to step in and ensure continuity, whether during a colleague’s leave or when gaps appear in the workflow”. Daniela’s proactive nature and holistic understanding of our operations has ultimately led to the formation of her current role, a synergy of underwriting, accounting, and collections.
Since our inception in 2013, we’ve watched both Daniela and the company evolve. From FCA authorisation in 2017, throughout the technological leaps with CL Originate and CL Loan and even during British Business Bank accreditation Daniela has embodied our own approach to diverse and adaptable financial solutions.
Throughout our expansion over the last decade, Daniela has been a driving force behind significant operational enhancements. Her innovative contributions, especially in improving our loan payout processes and co-developing our CL Loan module, have been crucial in reducing risk and safeguarding our financial health.
Daniela’s personal mantra, inspired by her father’s guidance, is that nothing is impossible with the right mindset and motivation. She champions this belief, encouraging young women in finance to take on complex challenges and advance their expertise.
Looking to the future, Daniela anticipates further integrating automation into our processes while maintaining the personal touch that distinguishes our customer service. Her strategic outlook not only aims to enhance our team and operations but also ensures we remain a pioneer in the financial industry.
