Hampshire Trust Bank (HTB) has expanded its specialist mortgages broker support team with the addition of four new lending managers.
Laila Perryman joins from Sirius Group, where she managed lending cases for over three years and became CeMAP-certified. Edward Shannon comes from United Trust Bank, where he was a relationship manager, and previously served as a lending manager for Recognise Bank and Redwood Bank. Alex Mills, who led inside sales for Australian bank Moula, and Gabriella Csende, who has been promoted from lending assessor to lending manager, complete the new team.
The broker support team plays a crucial role in getting specialist mortgage cases assessed, packaged, and finalised quickly. They serve as the dedicated contact for brokers at any stage of their lending application or case and work closely with business development managers and underwriters.
Alex Upton, managing director of specialist mortgages, commented: “Lending managers are the thread in our fabric, intricately weaved into our team to pull together vital information to ensure brokers receive the attentive service they, and their clients, deserve.
“And with these four new recruits offering heaps of personality, experience and energy, I’m convinced we’ve found the golden thread to strengthen our fleece.”
