England Rugby and Northampton Saints star Henry Pollock has taken on a new role away from rugby, going “on loan” to UK small businesses. He now fronts Funding Circle’s new campaign, The Pitch, swapping match days for working as a barista, barber and accountant, in a playful launch film.
His verdict: “I’m used to being thrown into different positions on a rugby pitch, but going on loan as a barista, barber and accountant were definitely new ones for me!”
As the UK’s leading SME finance platform, Funding Circle is giving one small business the chance to win a professionally produced advert starring Henry and three other PREM Rugby talents. It comes at a big moment for Henry, who recently signed a multi-year deal with Northampton Saints and is preparing for England’s Nations Championship opener against Australia on November 8th.
