Chris Bramham, previously a director at property firm Kings Group, will be responsible for leading the specialist first charge team, developing relationships with lenders, working with existing introducers and opening up new channels of distribution.
Bramham (pictured centre last year at the British Mortgage awards) has a twenty five year background in the mortgage industry. He spent the first thirteen years with Northern Rock where he led a sales team covering London and the South East.
For the past twelve years Chris has worked for Kings Group, which includes Metropolis Surveyors.
Following the appointment of Clive Willson as sales director, Brightstar continues on its high-profile recruitment drive.
Rob Jupp, CEO at Brightstar Financial, said one of his key objectives was to ensure that the business could attract the calibre of individual to take the company to the next stage in its development.
“Having broken through the £500m barrier for completions, we have conclusively proved the importance and validity of the specialist lending market to lenders and intermediaries.
“In order to sustain that growth from the sound platform we have built, we needed to ensure we could attract the kind of talent to help us move forward. Being able to announce the arrival of Chris Bramham is a moment of great personal satisfaction for me, as it shows just how far the company has come. Brightstar is really hitting its stride now and the next few years promise to be very exciting for us and for the industry we support. “
Chris Bramham said: “Having known Rob Jupp for many years, I am delighted to be finally working with him and his hugely successful team and look forward to developing Brightstar’s first charge capability even further. This is an exciting time in a dynamic business and I am relishing the challenge of building on the success that Brightstar has enjoyed so far.”
