Tuscan Capital has announced the appointment of Jaxon Stevens as its new sales director.

Reporting to Tuscan’s CEO, Colin Sanders, Stevens (pictured) joins the business with immediate effect and will lead the sales team covering the whole country, including its regional offices in Manchester and Birmingham as well as London and the Home Counties regions.

Stevens has over 25 years’ experience working in financial services covering a variety of consultancy and management roles, having worked for finance providers including GE Money and NatWest.

Sanders said: “We have been working on our revamped sales structure for some time and therefore it is very pleasing to be able to launch and announce the appointment of Jaxon as our new sales director.

“Jaxon is an individual who is well-known and highly respected in our marketplace with a vast network of property finance professionals and a track record of managing high-performing national sales teams for over a decade. He also has a strong, in-depth understanding of various financial solutions, especially in the short-term lending space having dealt with bridging, development, and refurbishment on both residential and commercial assets in recent years.

“We believe with our proposition and the experience we have put in place to support it, together with our reliable liquidity, it’s the right time to broaden our distribution through Jaxon’s connections and leadership.”

Stevens added: “I’ve looked at Tuscan’s journey so far and where it is with its funding, proposition and the capable team that has been assembled and have jumped at the chance to join them and to lead the charge. I can’t wait to get to work and am looking forward to taking the Tuscan proposition out to as wide a range of market relationships as possible.”
