Wednesday 06 March 2019

Skipton International is continuing to grow with the appointment of Roger Hughes as Business Development Manager.

With over 25 years in banking, he will be looking to grow the award-winning Banks’ mortgage book of business from direct customer enquiries and by forging strong relationships with UK brokers.

Since he joined the Bank, Mr Hughes has already led the development of the Guernsey and UK sale teams and the expansion of the sales broker networks.

He said: “Skipton is a well established mortgage lender and I was keen to be part of an organisation where change is easily made and one which reacts quickly to the demands of its customers and the market. I am delighted to have come on board with Skipton at such an exciting time, as we continue to improve our proposition and grow our business

“Skipton’s commitment to putting its customers first and continually looking for solutions is a really refreshing approach to banking and one which I am thoroughly enjoying.” 

Nigel Pascoe, Director of Business Development, said: “We are receiving an increasing number of enquiries for our services, so it was vital that we expanded our Business Development team in order to assert our presence in the market and to continue to generate new leads for the Bank. Roger is well respected in offshore lending circles and has been a valuable asset to Skipton since he joined us.”
