Strong pipeline at Aldermore
Both will commence their roles on 7 November and the appointments are expected to bolster the lender’s property business following a change in strategy earlier this year.
In its full-year results, Aldermore said it had a strong pipeline for property lending for the rest of the year. It also appointed Ross Dalzell as the managing director of the property division earlier this month as part of its renewed focus.
Jon Cooper, head of mortgages at Aldermore, said: “We are delighted to welcome Caroline and Andy to Aldermore. They both have vast experience within the mortgage market and will play a key role as we renew our focus on our property business for growth.”
Rowe said he was thrilled to be joining Aldermore at a “key moment” in its growth strategy.
He added: “Service and strong relationships are at the heart of everything that Aldermore does, and I look forward to helping them support more borrowers in the South of England.”
Mirakian said: “It’s great to be given the opportunity to join Aldermore and work with a superb team. I’ve long admired its broker-focused proposition and I wanted to play my part at Aldermore as it aims to deepen its property expertise and support more customers.
“The chance to join a dynamic, forward-thinking lender, that wants to continually evolve and adapt to the changing needs of its brokers and customers, was an opportunity that I couldn’t pass up.”
