1st Stop Group has appointed a new business development manager, Laura Walters.
She joined 1st Stop in May 2013 as a senior underwriter in the group’s home loans division and will now be responsible for managing new and existing relationships with 1st Stop’s introducers.
Steve Case, sales and marketing director for 1st Stop Group, said: “Laura has shown excellent sales ability over the last 18 months as one of our top performing underwriters at 1st Stop Home Loans.
“The appointment comes at a pivotal time for 1st Stop as we enjoy increased volumes through the launch of an innovative range of new lending products and processes. These include instant online decisions for both secured and unsecured products, no and low equity loans up to £20,000, a true rate for risk model and market leading introducer commissions with no packaging costs.
“With her extensive underwriting experience, Laura will be a real asset to us and our introducers in the field.”
Walters added: “I’m looking forward to building on existing broker relationships, developing new ones and introducing new product developments. Hopefully, I can help new and existing introducers realise every opportunity that passes their way.”
