Shawbrook Commercial Property has announced the promotions of Daryl Norkett and Rob Holt within its sales team.

Norkett joined Shawbrook in 2015 from Barclays and built a large panel of active broker partners, as well as developing those who have supported the bank over the years.

As a result he has been promoted to senior development manager. He will also continue to mentor Lee Williams as he develops his broker partners in the East Anglia region. This will allow Norkett to work more closely with Karen Bennett, managing director of commercial property and Ade Akande, senior manager of strategic planning, to provide more support on developing the product offering and identifying new opportunities.

Having worked at Shawbrook for the last three years, Holt has been able to develop a deep level of understanding of Shawbrook’s credit appetite for the team and that of the bank’s wider broker community, the lender said, which has now promoted him from sales executive to senior sales executive.

Holt will continue to provide the day to day support for Shawbrook’s broker partners and the sales desk team while working on sales initiatives that support the wider commercial business.

Emma Cox (pictured), sales director for commercial property, said: “I am delighted to announce the well-deserved promotions of Rob Holt and Daryl Norkett. They are outstanding representatives for Shawbrook, applying good sense and expertise everyday.

“I am confident that they will continue to provide great support to our broker partners and their clients in their new roles.”
