Hampshire Trust Bank has appointed Charles McDowell as managing director of its specialist mortgages division with effect from 1st October 2018.
"He will be supported by Alex Upton who has just joined us as sales director - they will be a formidable double act."
Charles has worked for Aldermore Bank since 2014, latterly as commercial mortgages director.
Charles will sit on HTB’s executive committee and will report directly to the bank’s CEO, Matthew Wyles.
