Castle Trust Bank strengthens bridging team and enhances proposition

Castle Trust Bank has strengthened its bridging proposition with a series of strategic enhancements, in a bid to provide quicker completions and more support to brokers.

As part of the improvements, Castle Trust Bank has restructured its operations to introduce a dedicated bridging underwriting team, delivering specialist expertise and a more streamlined approach to bridging finance applications.

The bank has appointed two new underwriters, Jackie Merrigan as senior underwriter and Simon Rogerson as underwriter.

In addition to enhancing its underwriting team, Castle Trust Bank has expanded its sales team with the recruitment of Tyrone Alexander as a business development manager (BDM) for London.

Aelxander will work alongside Sammi Gilbank, regional account manager, to provide brokers across the capital with specialist support and bespoke bridging solutions.

And finally, Castle Trust Bank will now use ‘no search’ indemnity insurance on heavy refurb cases as standard.

Castle Trust Bank completed the implementation of these enhancements at an internal team building day on 3rd February.

Anna Lewis, commercial director at Castle Trust Bank, said: “These changes mark a significant step forward in our commitment to providing brokers with a market-leading Bridging proposition.

“By introducing a dedicated underwriting team, expanding our sales coverage in London, and optimising our bridging processes, we are enhancing both the speed and quality of our service.

“The recruitment of Jackie, Simon, and Tyrone adds a wealth of experience to our team, and we are confident that these improvements will provide real value to brokers and their clients.”
