StreamBank has announced the appointment of Lee Warne as senior business development manager for London and the South East, as the lender continues to grow its presence in the specialist property finance market. Warne, who officially started on 4 March 2025, brings extensive experience in financial services, having previously held senior roles at Octane Capital, Shawbrook Bank, Vantage Insurance Services, and XYC.
With a background in sales, account management, underwriting, lending, and business development, Warne will be responsible for strengthening relationships with brokers across the region. His role will focus on providing tailored support, promoting StreamBank’s lending solutions, and keeping intermediaries informed of market developments to help deliver the best outcomes for clients.
His appointment follows the addition of Aiman Makland as business development manager for London and the South in January, coinciding with the launch of StreamBank’s StreamLine Bridging Product, which aims to provide faster approval for larger residential bridging loans.
