Birmingham Bank has appointed Jackie Burchill (pictured) as its new head of lending as the bank looks to grow its lending operations.
Burchill has over 30 years’ experience in the specialist mortgage market, including 21 years at GE Money Home Lending and 8 years at Bluestone Mortgages.
She has led the development of new origination platforms, using technology to make loan processing faster.
In her new role, Burchill will lead lending customer services, underwriting, and completions.
She will focus on building scalable processes and delivering strong service to customers and brokers.
Burchill said: “My passion is supporting lenders to grow from single-digit originations to £billion-plus established volumes.
“It’s an exciting challenge to join a bank during its start-up phase where I can apply my years of experience into building a really impactful service proposition.”
Lee Dawkins, chief of operations at Birmingham Bank, said: “We are overjoyed to welcome Jackie to the team.
“This appointment is a step in our strategy to bring the business into its next phase of scale and to match our service delivery with the considerable new business demand we’re experiencing.”
