Private Finance launches broker recruitment drive

Private Finance is recruiting experienced mortgage brokers and support staff to develop its association with Strutt & Parker.

The two have worked together for seven years and are now keen to build on their relationship.

Private Finance has successfully negotiated hundreds of millions of pounds worth of mortgages on behalf of Strutt & Parker’s clients.

Strutt & Parker, which has more than 40 residential teams operating across the UK, is placing an increased emphasis on the strategic importance of mortgage intermediation for its business.

Private Finance has 23 expert brokers and recently recruited Mike Perrin, who formerly lead the sales team at Largemortgageloans.com, to support its long-term plans for business growth. 

It grew 40% year-on-year in 2015 and has grown another 30% year-to-date.

Simon Checkley, managing director of Private Finance, said: “Strutt & Parker recognises that expert mortgage advice has a big part to play in its business objectives and we are excited about the future of this strategic and exclusive relationship.

“As such, we will be working hard to recruit advisors and support personnel into our academy with the necessary credentials.”

Guy Robinson, head of residential for Strutt & Parker, says: “Private Finance has played a valuable role in helping us deliver our high quality proposition to the market.”
