Shawbrook Bank has appointed a new business development executive (BDE) to its commercial mortgages team.
Gavin Seaholme will be based on the road and will work with Shawbrook’s Southern field sales team.
He will spend the majority of his time encouraging new introducers and clients to apply for Shawbrook loans through brokers on its managed panel.
Seaholme previously held business development roles with GE Money (igroup) and Money Partners and has over 15 years of experience in the industry.
Karen Bennett, sales and marketing director of commercial mortgages for Shawbrook Bank, said: “We are delighted to welcome Gavin into the Shawbrook Commercial family and it already feels like he is part of the furniture. 2014 has got off to a strong start for the team here at Shawbrook, and we have our broker panel to thank for that.
“We remain relentlessly committed to developing a strong team that supports our customers – the brokers – both internally and externally. To that end, we’re growing the team considerably this year.
“The addition of Gavin as a business development executive in the South ensures we can provide one-to-one support for more of our broker partners, continuing to work with them closely so as to add value to every broker’s business.”
