He joined the mutual as a mortgage adviser in 2018. 

Prior to this, Berrington worked at Connells for a year as a mortgage services consultant, and was also a personal banker at Santander for nearly three years. 

Berrington also worked at Halifax for seven years as a cashier, personal banker and, lastly, a mortgage adviser. 

At Loughborough Building Society, Berrington will be responsible for supporting key intermediary partners, developing new relationships and covering the absences of the head of intermediaries, Ashley Pearson.

Pearson said: “Luke has played an integral part in the growth of The Loughborough’s intermediary channel over the past five years.

“He has thoroughly earned this promotion and he will continue to play a key role in developing new intermediary relationships, as well as in strengthening existing ones, as we look to further extend our intermediary proposition in H2 2024 and beyond.”

Berrington (pictured) added: “Working with brokers across the UK for the past five years, alongside the team here at The Loughborough, has been incredibly rewarding.

“I’m looking forward to becoming even more heavily involved in growing our intermediary offering and better servicing the ever-evolving needs of our key partners and their clients.”

In June, Loughborough Building Society launched a range of intermediary-focused affordability calculators across its residential and buy-to-let (BTL) mortgages, following feedback from advisers. The mutual said it included broker-friendly features and functions, and provided a seamless experience.
