IMLA Conference for New Mortgage Industry Joiners Set for 23 June in Cardiff

The Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association (IMLA) will hold its 'Encouraging New Talent' conference on 23 June at Cardiff City Stadium. The event is designed for professionals who have recently joined the mortgage sector in intermediary or lender roles.

This is the sixth event in the IMLA's series focused on supporting and developing new entrants to the industry. The conference will feature speakers including Jonathan Stinton, chair of the IMLA and head of intermediary relationships at Coventry for Intermediaries; Kate Davies, executive director of the IMLA; and Nicola Goldie, deputy chair at the IMLA and head of strategic partnerships and growth at Aldermore.

Other presenters will include Ben Smith, head of products and propositions at Newcastle Building Society; Nick Chadbourne, CEO of LMS; and Amanda Bryden, head of Halifax Intermediaries & Scottish Widows Bank.

The agenda will cover an overview of the IMLA and its activities, the impact of digitisation on the home buying process, a review of the UK buy-to-let market, and guidance on building a career in the sector.

Letting agents and inventory clerks may find the conference relevant for insights into the evolving mortgage landscape, particularly regarding digitisation and the buy-to-let market.
