Atom Bank bolsters commercial lending team 

Atom Bank has appointed two new apprentices to work with its commercial lending intermediary team.

Claire Elgey is already employed at Atom bank, and moves from her previous role as people operations assistant in the People Experience team. Prior to this she spent a year and a half in Atom’s customer service department.

Jordan Butler joins from primary education, where he spent the last five years as a learning support assistant.

Claire and Jordan will take part in a formal 15-month apprenticeship, delivered by Kaplan. 

Upon completion, they will attain the Professional Banking Certificate from the Chartered Banking Institute, as well as become fully fledged telephone business development managers in the commercial lending team. 

David Castling, head of intermediary distribution at Atom Bank, commented: “We are delighted to welcome Claire and Jordan, who will no doubt be excellent additions to our growing and increasingly busy commercial lending team. We know that delivering exceptional service to our commercial brokers is paramount to our success, and this investment is a clear sign of our commitment to our broker panel and our colleagues.

“Atom Bank is passionate about bringing new talent into the mortgage industry. We will continue to pursue opportunities for both new recruits and existing staff members to meet their potential and deliver the leading service for which Atom Bank is renowned.”
