NatWest Intermediary Solutions has appointed Alan Ferguson as its new corporate account manager.

He replaces Andy Ingham, who has taken up a new position in NatWest’s retail arm.

Ferguson will be responsible for the day-to-day business relationships the lender has with a number of key accounts including Sesame/PMS, Intrinsic and Positive Solutions.

He joins from Santander where he has spent the last six years as regional manager responsible for retail mortgages and business banking. He has 25 years financial services experience, having started his career with the RBS Group in 1989 where, from the mid-1990s through to 2007, he specialised in the intermediary mortgage market.

Ferguson said: “I am very excited to be joining NatWest Intermediary Solutions and am really looking forward to working with my accounts to help them provide their members and their clients with a compelling mortgage proposition.”

Graham Felstead, head of NatWest Intermediary Solutions added: “Much of our success over the last few years has been rooted in establishing and maintaining close working relationships with the key networks and mortgage clubs. Alan is joining a team of highly skilled, ambitious and articulate individuals who are able to drive progress for the greater good of brokers and their clients.

“Having previously worked with him, I know he has the talent and contacts to further enhance our proposition and he will have gained some great experience from his time working with Santander. With a team of five corporate account managers we’ll continue to offer our key accounts a very personal service.”
