Roma Finance has announced the appointment of Michael Allison as commercial director.

Allison (pictured) joined Roma as head of transformational change in May 2021 from Together, where he worked for 13 of his 23 years in the finance industry.

He will now lead the pre-completion divisions of the journey for the business, building the strategy for sales, underwriting and completions.

He said: “Being part of a business that is so focussed on people, has been a pleasure and there is so much scope to do more. I am thrilled to be taking on this new step in mine and Roma’s journey.

“The values and morals instilled within the business are second to none and I am delighted to be leading a team with so much passion for the partner and borrower journey.”

Scott Marshall, managing director and founder at Roma Finance, added: “I am absolutely delighted to appoint Michael to the role of commercial director. He has been a major asset to the growth of Roma and I am so excited for the next two years.

“The positive changes that will be broadcast throughout 2023 to materially enhance the partner and borrower journey are ground-breaking in our industry.”
