She will report to Alex Upton, managing director for specialist mortgages and bridging finance.
Paramjorthy was most recently at Bridge Invest as its chief operating officer, and previously held a similar role at TAB.
She started her career as a partner at Philip Ross Solicitors, which specialised in residential property, before moving into senior operational roles.
Paramjorthy has more than 20 years of experience in law, lending and operations, as well as managing complex portfolios.
HTB said her appointment came when brokers were placing larger and more complex cases.

Paramjorthy (pictured) said: “Joining HTB was an easy decision for me because of the way the bank works with brokers. My career has taken me from property law into operational leadership, and that mix has shown me how important it is to combine strong processes with clear communication.
“Brokers want to know that once a deal completes, their clients will be supported throughout the term, and that is what portfolio management delivers. I am looking forward to working with the team to build on HTB’s reputation for consistency and long-term support.”
Upton added: “Portfolio management is where we make sure the structures agreed on day one continue to work for clients through to repayment. It is a part of the process brokers may not always see immediately, but it underpins every facility.
“As the size and complexity of cases grow, that oversight becomes even more important. Mathura’s background as a property lawyer, together with her operational and lending experience, brings exactly the perspective we need across both our specialist mortgages and bridging books. I am very pleased to welcome her to HTB.”
