Digital mortgage broker Habito has expanded its advice division with the appointment of seven new mortgage specialists, with a further five due to join next month.
The move highlights the firm’s aim to combine technology with personal service for homebuyers and homeowners across the UK.
The expansion will bolster Habito’s capacity to provide one-to-one guidance supported by its digital tools, aimed at making the mortgage process faster, simpler and more transparent.
Among the new recruits is Rebecca Chesters, who joins as mortgage advice manager from Mojo Mortgages. She brings extensive experience in digital mortgage advice and adviser management, having previously led high-performing teams and focused on delivering strong customer outcomes.
Chesters said: “Habito has built a reputation for being one step ahead – combining cutting-edge technology with genuine human advice that puts customers first.
“I’m thrilled to join at such an exciting time, as the business grows and continues to set the standard for what modern mortgage advice should look like; whilst maintaining a great internal culture.”
The latest hires follow a period of sustained growth for Habito, supported by new partnerships and technology-led initiatives that have expanded its reach and services.
Ying Tan (pictured), chief executive of Habito, added: “Our people are at the heart of Habito’s success. I’m proud to welcome Rebecca and our new mortgage experts as we continue to grow and innovate.
“We’re building a team that’s not only brilliant at what they do but genuinely passionate about transforming the mortgage experience for everyone.”
