Spicerhaart Corporate Sales has appointed David Hunter (pictured) as client account manager, aiming to boost support for lenders with their property portfolios.
Hunter will work with major banks, building societies and mortgage lenders to help manage stock and distressed assets.
He will also look after exit strategies to get positive outcomes for both lenders and borrowers.
Hunter brings nearly 40 years’ experience from the mortgage and property sector.
He joins from Rockstead, where he was senior business development manager for two years.
Before that, he spent over six years at NatWest intermediary solutions, first as a corporate account manager focusing on risk, compliance, governance and business development, and then as property risk and proposition manager for credit strategy.
Hunter said: “I am really pleased to join the team at Spicerhaart corporate sales and I am excited by the opportunity to use my market knowledge and experience from across 37 years to contribute to its future success.
“Spicerhaart has built a fantastic team and a really strong proposition which delivers significant value to all parties involved in the mortgage and property process.
“I look forward to working with our clients, building relationships and identifying new opportunities.”
David Miller, divisional director at Spicerhaart Corporate Sales, said: “Spicerhaart corporate sales has a formidable reputation as a trusted partner for some of the UK’s biggest financial institutions, supporting the successful management of their assets.
“With his wealth of knowledge and experience in this sector, David is a tremendous addition to our team as we continue to scale and establish new partnerships with banks, building societies and other financial/property companies.
“As lenders continue to demonstrate that repossession is very much a last resort, we have continued to see high demand for our services.”
Miller added: “Alongside proactive strategies to understand value and any potential risk within a mortgage book, we also work closely with lenders through assisted voluntary sale schemes to achieve the best possible price in the shortest amount of time.
“Most importantly, this approach enables us to deliver positive outcomes for both the lender and the borrower.”
