Mint Bridging has appointed its head of underwriting, Richard Showman, to the new role of head of lending.
"I am incredibly pleased to be able to step up into a new responsibility which has been tailor-made for me. "
Prior to joining Mint in September 2015, Richard held a variety of senior financial services and property related roles in a career which dates back to 1990.

Mint’s managing director, Andrew Lazare, said: “Richard has been at the centre of our lending management for over three years and our recent success could not have occurred without his considerable commitment, care and expertise. I am delighted that we have been able to reward his hard work with this newly created position, and I am confident that he will be at the heart of the success of our business for many years to come.”
