Lendco grows bridging arm with new broker sales executive

Lendco has hired Kieran Ryan (pictured) as bridging sales executive, growing the bridging arm of the business.

Ryan will service both new and existing brokers, and work alongside the firm’s dedicated bridging underwriters, Nicole Ashmore and Iain Rashbrook.

He joined from Ultimate Finance, where he was regional director for the Midlands and East of England.

Previously he held roles as development underwriter at MFS, as a commercial broker at B2B Finance.

In Q2 this year, Lendco signed a £200m bridging facility with NatWest Markets, enabling it to offer widened criteria and larger loans.

Ryan said: “I’m very excited to join Lendco at such a seminal moment in the company’s story.

“We can really push on and take our ‘can do’ attitude into the heart of the Bridging market and I look forward to bringing my expertise in this area to the team.”

Alex King, executive director at Lendco, said: “We are very pleased to welcome Kieran to the Lendco family and his appointment is the first in a string of new hires we are planning as we prepare to further grow both the Bridging and BTL sides of the business.”
