LiveMore, the mortgage lender for people aged 50 to 90-plus, has created a new proposition team as part of its ongoing expansion plans.
Samantha Ward (pictured), who has consulted with LiveMore for the past six months, is now head of proposition strategy and development – a new role for the business.
Tim Wellard, previously LiveMore’s product manager (mortgages), was promoted to join Ward’s team as senior proposition manager.
Wellard will also recruit a third person to work on propositions and development.
In the new role, Ward will lead the development of products and ownership of credit risk, while Wellard will develop new propositions, with a third role created to focus on the pricing and development of existing propositions.
Leon Diamond, CEO of LiveMore, said: “Samantha’s two decades of expertise will help drive us towards greater innovation and customer-centric solutions, while her vision and strategic leadership skills will also be invaluable.
“I am equally delighted to promote Tim Wellard, whose hard work has been evident in our breadth of product delivery achieved to date.
“We are excited to embark on this new journey with Samantha and Tim, as we continue to empower our clients to keep living the life they love through our tailored mortgage solutions.”
