Matt Wetherell is taking up the reins as ASM for one of the phone-based BDM teams on maternity cover for Gemma Pomfret.
British Mortgage Award winner Wetherell has been a BDM with NatWest for 11 years and won the Best Telephony Relationship Manager gong in 2015.
The bank is creating a new-field-based team to support brokers based on the South Coast and in the South West, headed up by Tracie Burton, who brings her experience in the advice and risk environment at NatWest to the role.
The two BDMs have been recruited to join NatWest’s phone-based BDM team.
Matt Witham has joined from Swinton Insurance with nine years’ financial services sales and training experience to work with brokers based in Norwich, Luton, Milton Keynes, Worcester, Lancaster and Canterbury.
Daniel Pyne’s background is in corporate new business and he will be working with a panel of brokers in Crewe, Guilford, Nottinghamshire, Bolton and Huddersfield.
Mark Bullard, head of sales, NatWest Intermediary Solutions, said: “It’s great to start the New Year with an injection of fresh blood into the team. Tracie’s appointment will mean that we will have a much greater presence in the South Coast/South West region. I am also very pleased with Matt’s appointment as it demonstrates that an outstanding performance as a BDM can result in the reward of a managerial position. With two new BDMs having joined us, I am looking forward to another fantastic year.”
