TAB Bank added Ryan D. Gabriel to its business development team as vice president and business development officer for the Pacific Northwest and western Canada. In this role, Gabriel will operate from Seattle and have responsibility for sourcing new business opportunities throughout the Pacific Northwest region and western portions of Canada to provide asset-based and factoring working capital resources to commercial businesses with annual revenues ranging from $2 million to $150 million.
