Hampshire Trust Bank has announced the recruitment of a new business development manager (BDM) covering the North West region.

The man who has been hired for this role is Waqar Khan, who was previously employed by LendInvest. He worked for this company as its North Wales and North West business development manager, so he will bring a range of useful contacts to his new job. Khan assisted mortgage advisors with residential, bridging and buy-to-let applications and he will continue to do so at HTB.

His time at LendInvest is not the only experience of working as a BDM that Khan has either. He also held that role at Aldermore earlier in his career. Other jobs on his resume include mortgage team and relationship management roles for Lloyds Banking Group.

The man who will supervise him at HTB is Danny Kiely, but Khan will be expected to manage a regional portfolio of mortgage advisors. He will be helped in this task by Wes Baker, the regional account director.

According to Mortgage Strategy, he said his experience with advisors throughout the region had taught him the value of lenders who are responsive and who understand individual cases.

Khan then went on to say:

“HTB has a strong reputation for its specialist approach and the relationships it builds with brokers. I’m looking forward to being part of the team, continuing to work with the contacts I’ve made across the region and building new partnerships.”

Khan will be a familiar figure to most advisors with CeMAP training in the North West.
