Hana Financial said it has named John Marsha as senior vice president and regional marketing manager of its Atlanta office. The former CIT VP is tasked with creating and cultivating networks as well as finding and developing new business.

Much of Marsha’s experience has been at the senior management team level where he has created and implemented a number of successful campaigns, developed products and expanded client base. He is Factors Chain International certified, has pervasive experience structuring domestic and international trade credit protection and was responsible for doubling the export portfolio of CIT Commercial Services over a five-year period.

“With extensive knowledge of factoring as well as international trade credit, we believe John is ideally qualified to expand Hana Financial’s business not only in Georgia, but across the country,” said Sunnie Kim, Hana Financial’s president and chief executive officer. “John is also a relationship builder who has proven over two decades in the industry that he is an expert in broadening the scope of a company’s marketplace through unique strategy and networking.”
