Cambridge Building Society has bolstered its leadership team with the appointment of Carly Nutkins as its new head of lending.
Nutkins, who brings over 15 years of banking experience, is expected to facilitate the Society’s ambitious plans for mortgage growth.
“I’m delighted to have the opportunity to come to The Cambridge to lead the Lending team and streamline its processes to make it easier for more people to have a home,” Nutkins said of her appointment. “I am constantly impressed by the passion and desire shown by everyone in the team, and across the Society, for continuously putting its members at the heart of everything it does.”
Nutkins, who was attracted by the Society’s commitment to the Women in Finance Charter, diversity, inclusion, and wellbeing, believes that such commitments “benefit customers, our culture, and Society.”
Peter Burrows, chief executive of The Cambridge, welcomed to Nutkins. “We are delighted to welcome Carly to our team,” he said. “She brings a unique combination of strong financial leadership in the mortgage market with a community-first attitude. I am confident she will make a difference to our lending proposition, to the benefit of the Society and its members.”
Since joining The Cambridge, Nutkins has led the implementation of its Consumer Duty compliance, setting higher and clearer standards of consumer protection.
Nutkins joined The Cambridge from Allica Bank, where she worked as its mortgage operations manager, developing its lending team from the ground up and delivering effective processing of commercial mortgage applications.
The Cambridge also announced new appointments of Tom Llewelyn as company secretary and head of governance, and Fred Holland as head of operational risk.
