iLending, an automotive and RV loan refinancing company, has named Jason Oswald director of sales at the company’s office in Columbia, South Carolina.
Oswald will be responsible for all sales functions for the company’s office located off I-77 and Farrow Road.
The facility began operations in September 2021 and currently employs 50 team members with many to be added by year’s end and into 2023, the company said. iLending plans to continue hiring at the location to support demand for car loan refinancing.
“The robust growth iLending has experienced this past year is the result of the combined efforts of our teams in Denver, Austin, and now Columbia,” iLending’s CEO Tom Holgate said. “We are extremely fortunate to have Jason’s wealth of sales and operations experience to guide and strengthen our team in Columbia. We’re delighted with the progress we’ve made in South Carolina in such a short amount of time. Jason will deliver the leadership that will anchor iLending’s continued role as the innovator in auto refinance.”
Prior to joining iLending, Oswald was Global Lending Services eastern region director of sales where he led sales, operations, and training for five years. Prior to Global Lending Services, he was at American Credit Acceptance in South Carolina as regional sales manager and national sales trainer.
“I love working with a company that’s looking to challenge the norm and change the way an industry looks and thinks,” Oswald said. “This is an incredibly passionate group of individuals, from the executive team to the loan consultants and staff. iLending’s deep commitment to help customers improve their financial outlook is what drew me to leading the future growth of the Columbia refinance center. I’m grateful for the opportunity.”
