LiveMore has appointed two key account managers for the North and Midlands, as well as a mortgage underwriter.
Claire Aston, key account manager for the Midlands, Aaron Farrell, key account manager for the North, and Leah Chiakli, mortgage underwriter, have all joined the business in January.
Aston has a background working for high street and challenger banks for 20-plus years in client relationship management and strategic account growth.
Farrell has worked in financial services – banks and building societies – for more than 15 years.
Both Aston and Farrell will be focused on building new and existing intermediary connections while growing awareness of LiveMore.
Chiakli has worked in the mortgage industry for the past four years, across first and second charge mortgages.
Les Pick, director of intermediary sales at LiveMore, said: “Last year we generated year-on-year growth of 300% in revenue and 100% in lending.
“Aaron, Claire and Leah will help us continue to build on that as we move through what is already a really exciting 2025 at LiveMore.
“As key account managers, Aaron and Claire will be supporting intermediaries as we launch new initiatives to support advisers of all levels of proficiency in the mid-to-later life market.”
He added: “As well as growing our teams with great people, we continue to develop our technology with our market-leading LiveMore Mortgage Matcher®.
“It’s a quick and easy broker tool that helps advisers sift through more than 250 products spanning standard capital and repayment, standard interest-only, retirement interest-only and lifetime (equity release) mortgages.
“In as little as five minutes, brokers can share a PDF document of suitable options with their clients, helping provide good customer outcomes in line with the Consumer Duty.”
