Aspen Bridging promotes senior quartet

Published on

Aspen Bridging has made four key strategic senior promotions.

The appointments have been made to support the provider’s target of £250m lending in 2025, which represents book growth of 25%.

Aqib Iqbal becomes head of  credit, with Sinead McMurray moving into his previous role of credit manager.

Richard Tweddell is promoted to underwriting manager having been a senior underwriter.

Finally, Richard Coombs moves to a broader remit as operations manager from credit analyst.

The promotions follow the lender’s recent announcement of four appointments onto its GRS, its largest single intake of students to date, as well as their soon to be named Midlands BDM.

Jack Coombs, managing director at Aspen Bridging, said: “We enjoyed a record year in 2024, and to ensure we are in the right place to take that next step and achieve £250m in total lending in 2025 we need the right people in the right places. That goes for existing employees and new starters.

“Aspen has a track-record of rewarding, where appropriate, those who step-up and prove themselves in being a more important contributor to our success. It is only right that we in-turn reward staff who constantly display that aptitude and commitment in order to retain the very best talent.

“Every single person in this business has the chance to progress and make their mark in one of the fastest growing bridging lenders in the UK.”
