Spring Finance has appointed Jordan Lapid as an underwriter to work within the specialist bridging team.

Lapid will report to Claire Newman, head of bridging, and has over years of experience having previously worked with Masthaven as an underwriter.

Following the pilot phase of its bridging proposition, Spring Finance has now completed a number of loans and says it is seeing a significant number of applications being processed.

Lapid said: “I am incredibly excited to be joining the team at Spring. They have a clear vision to provide a trusted and personal level of service to their customers. I am looking forward to working in an environment where I can build strong relationships with the intermediaries to deliver great results.”

Newman added: “Jordan joining Spring is another great step forward for the bridging team. He embodies the key elements that we are looking to provide to our brokers and clients and will ensure that our service levels remain high as we move forward.

“Having worked with Jordan for many years before I have no doubt that he will hit the ground running and I’m thoroughly looking forward to working with him again.”
