Profile

About Bjorn Laku

As Director & CMO of Cashbook Finance, Bjorn leads the firm’s brand, digital acquisition, introducer relationships and client communication. His remit is to make specialist finance easier to navigate – translating complex structures, evidence requirements and decision routes into clear commercial language that businesses and advisers can use with confidence.

His professional development includes Digital Marketing at New York University, alongside advisory and community involvement with the British Albanian Chamber of Commerce, the Albanian Professionals and Entrepreneurs Network and New York Cares. Together, these experiences reflect a career built across markets and sectors, with a consistent focus on clarity, credibility and long-term relationships.

At Cashbook Finance, Bjorn connects how the firm presents itself with how it performs in practice. He uses market evidence, enquiry data and client feedback to sharpen propositions, remove friction from the customer journey and ensure every public promise can withstand the scrutiny of a live funding conversation.

At Cashbook Finance

Focus at Cashbook

At Cashbook, Bjorn’s remit connects market positioning, digital acquisition, client communication and commercial insight. He works to ensure that the way the firm explains specialist funding reflects how cases are actually assessed, giving businesses and advisers useful context rather than generic marketing claims.

He also uses evidence from campaigns, enquiries and client conversations to refine the customer journey, strengthen propositions and identify where clearer information can remove friction before a funding discussion begins.
