Meet Alex Russell

I work with NZ business owners to solve cashflow challenges through invoice finance, import finance, and export finance solutions.

Through Pacific Invoice Finance, I help businesses access flexible funding solutions that support growth, unlock working capital, and provide funding where traditional lenders often cannot.

Alongside this, About The Green is where I sit down with founders, operators, and professionals to unpack the real conversations happening in business today from growth and pressure to leadership and financial decisions.

My goal is simple: help businesses access better cashflow and better conversations.
