Lendscape appoints Brett Promisel as chief executive officer
Lendscape today announced the appointment of Brett Promisel as chief executive officer, following an extensive, global search process.
Promisel joins Lendscape with more than 30 years’ experience leading global technology and financial services organisations, with a strong track record of driving growth, operational excellence, and transformational change. Over his career he has held senior leadership roles at mid-size private and public organisations such as RELX, FIS Global, and UBS, working with complex, regulated financial services businesses across international markets. Most recently, he was head of the investor services business at FIS Global, following the acquisition of Deep Pool Financial Solutions, where he served as president and chief operating officer.
“Lendscape has built a strong reputation for supporting complex, mission-critical finance operations,” said Promisel. “I’m looking forward to spending time with the teams and clients to understand what makes the business successful today. My focus in the early months will be on listening, learning, and building on the solid foundations already in place, while working with the leadership team to support our growth strategy across our core markets and into further global expansion.”
Tony Davison, chairman of Lendscape, said, “Brett is a highly experienced technology and financial services leader with a proven track record of building and scaling global businesses. His appointment follows a thorough and considered search process, and we are confident in his ability to lead Lendscape through its next phase of development.”
The appointment follows a period of transition during which Martin Morrin has served as interim chief executive officer. During this time, the company has continued to invest in its platform, deepen client relationships, and position the business for the future.
Reflecting on the transition, Martin Morrin said, “It has been a privilege to serve as Interim CEO during an important period for Lendscape. I’m pleased to be handing over to Brett and look forward to continuing to support the business as vice chairman, working closely with the Board and leadership team as we build on the momentum already underway.”
