CrowdProperty has announced the appointment of Steve Deutsch as its new chief executive officer (CEO), subject to FCA approval.
He succeeds co-founder Mike Bristow, who has led the business since 2018 and will be stepping down to take a sabbatical.
Bristow has played a key role in moving CrowdProperty from a startup into an established property development finance provider.
Under his leadership, the company now has a team of over 45 professionals.
Deutsch, the incoming CEO, brings extensive experience in senior leadership roles, having served at board level in financial services since 2006. His previous roles include CEO positions at GB Bank and Wesleyan Bank.
John Mould, chairman at CrowdProperty, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome Steve Deutsch as our new CEO, and look forward to a year of positive transformation.
“Steve’s leadership experience and track record in driving growth and operational excellence will be crucial to enhancing our position in the market.”
