MT Finance has promoted Alex Taylor to business development manager for mortgages, where he will be responsible for strengthening ties with brokers and supporting them with the lender’s buy-to-let and commercial mortgage products.

Taylor (pictured) joined the company in 2024 as buy-to-let broker relationship manager and has since worked across several areas of the department, including underwriting and relationship management.

His promotion reflects both his experience and the lender’s focus on expanding its mortgage offering.

Marylen Edwards, director of mortgages at MT Finance, said: “Alex is highly knowledgeable, great at building relationships and an excellent communicator.

“His can-do attitude is a valuable trait for brokers, and we are extremely confident that he will fit right into this next challenge and be exceptional in this role.”

Gareth Lewis, deputy chief executive officer, added: “Alex’s promotion is extremely well-deserved. His dedication and deep knowledge of our mortgage and buy-to-let products make him a significant asset to our team and our broker network.

“We are confident that he will excel in this new role and play a key part in supporting our brokers as we build on the continued growth of our buy-to-let and mortgage division.”

Taylor said he was “thrilled to take on this new challenge”, adding: “I’ve always been passionate about helping brokers find the right solutions for their clients, and I’m eager to build on the relationships I’ve developed. I look forward to working even more closely with our partners in this role.”
