Cambridge and Counties Bank expands London and South East team

Nick joins Cambridge and Counties Bank following a 17-year career in banking, initially in treasury markets and then real estate finance.

He worked at Nationwide Building Society for 13 years and also spent a short time at Secure Trust Bank before working at Handelsbanken in London for the past four years.

Cambridge and Counties Bank said there was enhanced demand for its real estate product suite in 2021 across the UK.

In London and the South East, activity has increased around commercial and mixed-use assets, alongside the more conventional residential and houses in multiple occupation (HMO) properties.

In 2022, the bank is expecting to significantly expand its regional teams to cater for client demand for its dedicated lending products.

Cox said: “I am delighted to be joining the Cambridge and Counties Bank team in the capital and look forward to engaging with my broker and professional contacts to assist customers in realising their real estate goals. London remains a highly dynamic, significant market with demand across real estate sectors and I’m confident the bank is very well positioned to meet this demand.”

Stuart Jones, area director for London and South East at Cambridge and Counties Bank (pictured), said: “Nick is a great addition to the Cambridge and Counties Bank team, with extensive experience in key areas such as broker relationships and deal execution. London is a key growth market for the bank, and we will continue to invest in the local team.”
