Peter Heigho has become managing director of specialist financial technology business APAC Systems.

He has 25 years’ mortgage software experience, including Trigold’s Prospector and The Key.

In his new role Heigho (pictured) will further develop and deliver broker-focused software from the London and Warrington-based business.

Heigho said: “It is fantastic to be part of a business that not only has the ambition and vision to build a ground-breaking mortgage sourcing and processing system, but is also committed to ensuring that this technology is both reliable and broker-friendly.

“Getting both of these elements spot on is what separates the wheat from the chaff in this sector.”
