“The Trussle team has done a great job so far, and our excellent group of investors are committed to the strategic opportunity that lies ahead. Trussle is really well positioned to lead the transformation of the mortgage industry.”

Simon Williams, Trussle’s chairman, added: “We are thrilled to have someone of Ian’s calibre leading the business. Ian’s vast experience in retail and commercial financial services, and his expertise in growing businesses and enhancing customer propositions will be an important part of our success.
