Brightstar expands HNW business
Brightstar’s high net worth business, Sirius Property Finance, has hired three new team members and moved to larger office premises.
"I believe the team that we have put together are a match for anyone in the market – and the new offices gives us a great base and scope for more growth in numbers."
Robert Heywood has held previous roles as both a business development manager for specialist lenders and as a commercial & development finance broker.
Neil Chambers has also joined the Sirius team moving across from Brightstar’s associated regulated mortgage division, Bright Mortgage Services.
Finally, Leoni Alexandrou has joined the business to support the sales team and to offer general administrative back-up within the office. Leoni had a successful career as a teacher before moving into financial services.
The new additions bring the staff numbers to six and further recruitment is expected through 2017 as the new brand builds further market presence.
The growth in Sirius has led to the second office move since the inception of the business and the new premises are located in the heart of the Square Mile at Royal Exchange Avenue.
Sirius director, Robert Collins, commented: “We started this business with the clear intention of recruiting the leading professionals within the London market and I believe the team that we have put together are a match for anyone in the market – and the new offices gives us a great base and scope for more growth in numbers.”
