Aspen Bridging has strengthened its sales team with the appointment of Kevin Beale as business development manager for the Midlands and North.
Beale (pictured) will be responsible for building new relationships, developing his existing network and deepening established Aspen partnerships, with the aim of supporting steady loan book expansion.
He joins from Quantum Mortgages, where he held a similar role, having previously been specialist finance account manager at OSB Group and spending several years in senior positions at Precise Mortgages.
Beale will report to sales director Ian Miller-Hawes and join the existing team of Steve Gregory, covering the South and South West, and Mike Allen, responsible for London and the East of England.
The appointment comes shortly after Aspen announced it had surpassed £750m in total lending since its launch in 2017, with a target of reaching £1bn within the next year.
Miller-Hawes said: “Positive broker engagement is a core tenant of our business, and to become their trusted bridging partner of choice we require a team that excels in helping create solutions for their clients backed up by market leading customer service levels.
“I’m confident Kevin will fit into this business proposition perfectly.”
Beale added: “Aspen has an existing strong presence in the Midlands and North regions and I am here to further leverage that position and take our commitment to brokers to the next level.
“It’s a phenomenally exciting time to be joining Aspen as the business’s excellent reputation grows – and grows.”
