Our story: a broker built around service

Complete Leasing Solutions began arranging business finance in 2004. We are a commercial finance broker, not a lender, which means our job is to find the right funder for your deal rather than push one product.

As a commercial finance broker we have completed more than 30,000 transactions for businesses of every size, from a single piece of equipment worth £1,000 to large multi site packages with no upper limit. That track record is why so many customers come back, and why suppliers trust us to look after the people they refer.

We measure our success by the outcome for the customer. A quick, clear answer matters. So does a fair structure and a process that does not eat your week.

What a commercial finance broker actually does

A broker sits between you and the funders. We take the details of what you need, shape the proposal so it presents your business well, and put it in front of the lenders most likely to say yes. You deal with one person, and we handle the conversations behind the scenes.

If you are weighing up the basics first, our guide to leasing versus buying is a good place to start.

Who we work with

  • Sole traders and partnerships
  • Limited companies and LLPs
  • Charities and public sector bodies
  • Start ups and established firms
  • Customers across the whole UK

How we work with you

Every customer gets the same straightforward approach, whether the deal is large or small.

One account manager

A dedicated member of our team handles your facility from start to finish, so you are never passed from person to person.

A wide panel plus our own options

We work with a network of over 200 lenders. For some start ups and smaller businesses we also have in house funding that other brokers cannot offer.

Fast, clear decisions

Applications take minutes and decisions often come back within hours. We keep you updated, so you always know where things stand.

Guidance when you are unsure

Starting out, upgrading equipment, looking at a loan or considering asset refinance? We talk you through which route fits your situation.

Tax efficient funding

Lease payments can be set against pre tax profit in full. Your own accountant will confirm how it applies to you.

Signed in minutes

Agreements arrive by email and are signed securely online with E-Sign. There is no printing and no posting.

Based in Cramlington, working across the UK

Our office is at Northumberland Business Park in Cramlington. Most of our work is done by phone and online, which lets us help businesses from Cornwall to the Highlands as readily as those on our doorstep.

We are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority as a credit broker, and you can confirm that for yourself on the FCA Register.

Our approval rate on new business enquiries is 92%, because we take time to match each deal with the right lender before it is submitted.

Our values as a commercial finance broker

  • We act with the customer's best interests at heart.
  • We work quickly and professionally.
  • We explain things in plain English.
  • We keep our promises on timing and on what we can deliver.

What our partners say

These come from suppliers who refer their own customers to us.

I first used CLS about 8 years ago and have always found their service to be efficient and friendly. The staff are always on hand to find the right financing solution for all types of deals whether they are £30,000 or £1,500. CLS is a business that aims NOT to let the customer down.

Recognised as a commercial finance broker

In 2024 we were named Best Nationwide Business Finance Broker at the SME News Northern Enterprise Awards 2024. It is a nice thing to have on the wall, but the work behind it is the everyday kind: answering the phone, keeping people informed and finding the right lender.

If you would like to see what that looks like in practice, our case studies show real businesses we have helped, and the team is always happy to chat about your own plans.
