Specialist lender StreamBank has added to its sales and underwriting teams as it looks to support brokers amid continued demand for complex property finance.
StreamBank has appointed Kendyl Binnie as business development manager and Denise Davies as senior underwriter, in a move the lender says is designed to reinforce service standards and access to decision makers for its intermediary partners.
Davies (pictured, left) brings more than 30 years’ experience, largely within specialist lending. She joins from Foundation and has previously held roles at Optimum Credit, Hodge Lifetime and ING.
Her background spans both regulated and unregulated lending, including complex cases that fall outside high street criteria.
She said: “I’m delighted to be joining StreamBank at such an important stage of its growth.
“I’ve spent most of my career working with complex cases and supporting brokers where flexibility really matters. StreamBank’s approach stood out to me, and I’m looking forward to using my experience to support brokers and the wider team.”
Binnie (pictured, right) joins with six years’ experience in specialist lending across first and second charge loans, short-term finance, asset finance and complex borrowing. She has worked closely with AR firms, providing hands-on support in the short-term lending market.
She said: “I’m really pleased to be joining StreamBank. It has a strong lending range and a clear focus on brokers. I’m looking forward to working closely with introducers, supporting them with complex cases and helping more brokers get to know what StreamBank can offer.”
Roz Cawood, managing director of property finance at StreamBank, added: “Kendyl and Denise both bring strong experience that will add real value for our broker partners.
“As demand for specialist lending continues, it is vital that we invest in the right people across both sales and underwriting. These appointments reflect our focus on service and on building long term broker relationships.”
The appointments follow the arrival of national account director Lorenzo Satchell in January, after the lender simplified its bridging range in December in an effort to make criteria clearer and case placement more straightforward for brokers.
