United Trust Bank has recruited banking lawyer William Gould into its bridging division.
The lender says his appointment will allow it to further develop its service, in particular with regard to providing complex structured loans.
Gould (pictured) joins United Trust Bank from the London office of international law firm Eversheds LLP where he spent a period of time seconded to the commercial banking division of a major clearing bank.
He has had particular exposure to real estate finance and corporate lending as well as having gained experience of offshore structures and transactions.
Alan Margolis, head of bridging at United Trust Bank, said: “We’re anticipating developing our short term business further next year and William’s skills should increase the Bank’s capabilities to complete even more complex structured loan proposals whilst maintaining the high service levels which brokers have come to expect.
“It’s important that as we expand our business we continue to hire experienced professionals who can add to our knowledge base and who share the Bank’s ethos for delivering service excellence. William brings additional experience and enthusiasm which will benefit the team, our broker partners and our borrowers.”
