Skipton Building Society has promoted Jen Lloyd to the role of head of product and propositions for mortgages.
This advancement follows her successful interim period in the position and comes after Charlotte Harrison’s promotion to CEO of Skipton’s Home Financing Division.
Lloyd, who previously held the position of senior mortgage product lead at Skipton, brings over 14 years of experience with the building society to her new role.
Having joined Skipton in 2009 after completing her education in politics and philosophy, she initially served customers at the Colne branch and then moved through various roles in marketing, strategy, and product management teams.
In her new role, Lloyd will lead a team of mortgage product experts, focusing on developing new mortgage solutions to aid more people in becoming homeowners.
Lloyd said: “I’m so pleased to be heading up Skipton’s home financing product team. It’s been such an exciting six months in the team.
“We’ve brought back the UK’s first 100% mortgage since 2008 to support first-time buyers trapped in the rental cycle and we’ve began tackling the mortgage jargon within our mortgage products to make it that bit simpler.
“But we have so many ideas in the pipeline in how we can work across the Skipton Group, utilising all the information available to us, and bring some real solutions to the market that make homeownership more obtainable.
“We know the cost-of-living is having a real impact on buyers and the mortgage process is incredibly complex and it’s our responsibility to challenge that.”
