Aspen expands sales team with new Midlands and North BDM
Aspen Bridging has further emphasised its growth ambitions and commitment to direct broker engagement with the appointment of Kevin Beale as business development manager (BDM) in the Midlands and North regions.
Kevin’s focus will be in building new relationships and nurturing his existing network, as well as deepening existing Aspen partnerships, to continue to drive steady loan book growth.
He joins from Quantum Mortgages where he held a similar position, before which he was specialist finance account manager at OSB Group and spent several years in senior roles at Precise Mortgages.
Kevin will report to Aspen’s sales director, Ian Miller-Hawes and join an established BDM team that includes Steve Gregory who is responsible for the South and South West and Mike Allen who represents the firm in London and the East of England.
This announcement builds on the lender’s recent announcement that it has surpassed £750m in total lending since its 2017 launch and is aiming to reach £1bn within the next year.
Ian stated: “Positive broker engagement is a core tenant of our business, and to become their trusted bridging partner of choice we require a team that excels in helping create solutions for their clients backed up by market leading customer service levels. I’m confident Kevin will fit into this business proposition perfectly.”
“Aspen has an existing strong presence in the Midlands and North regions and I am here to further leverage that position and take our commitment to brokers to the next level,” added Kevin. “It’s a phenomenally exciting time to be joining Aspen as the business’s excellent reputation grows-and-grows.
