HTB creates new business development executive role

Published on

Hampshire Trust Bank (HTB) has introduced a new business development executive (BDE) role within its bridging team.

The new roles are designed to streamline support and deliver faster responses.

The BDEs will work alongside HTB’s field-based business development managers (BDMs), so brokers have a consistent point of contact, whether managing new enquiries, assisting with case onboarding, or progressing complex deals.

In addition to managing issued terms, the BDEs will gather feedback from brokers, and also facilitate introductions between brokers and the relevant HTB teams.

Olivia Colmer-Lynch and Ross Sheppard have been appointed to the new BDE roles. Colmer-Lynch has spent five years at HTB, most recently as senior lending manager in the bridging division, while Sheppard brings nearly three years of experience as a BDM in development finance and bridging.

Lorenzo Satchell, sales director of bridging at HTB, said: “Olivia and Ross have been fantastic in building strong relationships with our brokers. They understand the details and intricacies of each case, which is exactly what brokers need – specialists who are right there to help move things forward.

“With these new roles, we’re adding another layer of support to ensure brokers have quicker access to expertise and decisions, particularly on more complex deals.

“Having the BDEs based in the office means faster responses and progress, allowing us to continue delivering the high level of service that brokers expect from us.”
