Afin Bank Appoints Three Regional BDMs as It Expands Bridging Finance

Afin Bank has recruited three regional business development managers (BDMs) to cover the North, South, and Midlands. This move comes as the bank expands its proposition to include regulated bridging finance alongside its existing residential and buy-to-let (BTL) mortgage products.

Sabiha Moghal will cover the Midlands region. She joins Afin Bank from Charles Street Finance and has previously worked for Mansfield Building Society, State Bank of India, and Keystone Property Finance.

Elliot Newey has been appointed to oversee business in the North. He brings over 25 years of experience in financial services, including roles at Zephyr Homeloans and Market Financial Solutions.

Bradley Street will be responsible for the South. He joins from Market Harborough Building Society and has also worked for Hodge for Intermediaries, Secure Trust Bank, Pepper Money, Castle Trust, and Halifax, with almost 20 years of experience in the sector.

Anum Mahmood, who was promoted to national sales director last month after joining the bank as national key account manager earlier this year, commented on the appointments in the original report.

These appointments are relevant to UK letting agents and inventory clerks as Afin Bank’s expanded team and product range may offer new financing options for landlords and property investors across the country.
