Fleet Mortgages has announced the appointment of a new business development manager (BDM) for the South East region.
Stella Brookman (pictured) joins the buy-to-let specialist lender with immediate effect and has over 30 years’ experience working in financial services with previous jobs including mortgage adviser, underwriter, account manager and BDM.
Most recently, she was a BDM for Bank of Ireland, working on its specialist lending proposition and covering London, Kent and Essex. Over the past six years she has built strong relationships with advisers right across the South East region that she will continue to develop in this new role with Fleet.
Brookman has also held BDM and key account manager roles with the Sheriffs Office, PruProtect, SPML and Alliance & Leicester.
Fleet Mortgages offers buy-to-let mortgages exclusively through the intermediary channel with products available in three core areas – for individuals, limited companies/LLPs and those seeking to finance HMO and multi-unit blocks.
Steve Cox, chief commercial officer at Fleet Mortgages, said: “It’s very rare to find someone who has not only been fully-immersed in the mortgage market for a long period of time, but has held a variety of roles, has the strongest relationships in the region they are going to cover, and fully understands the specialist nature of the lending you carry out.
“However, we have all that with Stella and so much more, and we believe she will be a great asset to Fleet Mortgages and all those advisory firms she will be dealing with in the South East region.
“It is wonderful to end an excellent year for the business with an excellent hire, and we are looking forward to seeing what both Stella and Fleet are going to achieve in 2022 and beyond.”
