Hampshire Trust appoints lending manager for the North West
Hampshire Trust Bank has appointed Malone Roberts as a lending manager for the North West within its specialist mortgages division.
"We have seen great traction since Wes Baker came onboard as a BDM and started to service our brokers in this region"
Malone joins HTB after spending three years at Shawbrook Bank. He joined Shawbrook in July 2019 as a lending administrator in its Brentwood office, before being promoted to business development executive in November 2020.
In his new role, Malone will be on hand to support the Bank’s brokers in the North and Midlands, structuring and packaging new applications.
Andrea Glasgow, head of new business at Hampshire Trust Bank, commented: “I am absolutely thrilled with this new appointment; Malone will make a great addition to the team. We are seeing incredible growth year on year and this appointment further supports our commitment to offering first class service.
“We have seen great traction since Wes Baker came onboard as a BDM and started to service our brokers in this region and adding a dedicated lending manager for the region is another step in supporting our brokers.”
Malone Roberts added: “I’m excited to have joined HTB at what is the start of its next phase of growth. HTB has a fantastic proposition which is continuously evolving and improving.
“I see HTB as a lender I can grow with; what I have seen from the Bank over the years is that they remain strong and consistent regardless of the volatility in the market. It is a business I can be proud to work for.”
