New telephone BDM recruited by Dudley BS

October 24, 2025 by Brendan O'Neill

Dudley Building Society has announced the signing of a new telephone business development manager (BDM), as it seeks to boost the support available to mortgage advisors.

The man that it has appointed to that position is Adam Holmes, and he has experience in offering support to advisors. His previous role was at Paradigm Mortgage Services, which he has worked for since 2021. He was employed by that lender as its mortgages technical services advisor and assisting advisors with day-to-day issues was a big part of that job. Holmes is joining Dudley BS with immediate effect.

His role with his new employer will put him in direct contact with its mortgage advisors, via the intermediary channel. He will be the first person they look to for help with applications and with the various products offered by the building society.

Holmes will collaborate with the BDMs who work throughout the different regions of the country, as well as with Dudley BS’s underwriters. One of his key tasks will be to assist advisors in finding products that suit borrowers with unconventional circumstances.

He spoke to Mortgage Strategy after his appointment was announced, stating that:

“I am proud to join a lender that genuinely listens to brokers and takes a case-by-case approach. My experience has given me a strong understanding of the challenges brokers face.”

Holmes then added that he was keen to foster relationships with mortgage advisors, so that he could support them more effectively.

This sounds like something that people with CeMAP mortgage advisor training will find helpful.
