"He has already been out meeting clients and making new connections and I am pleased to welcome him to the team."
Paragon Bank has appointed Martin Crossley as a relationship director in its development finance division.
Martin joins Paragon from Lloyds Bank, where he spent over 12 years, most recently as real estate manager. Prior to that, he was a mortgage broker, specialising in residential and buy-to-let.
Martin said: “I am excited to join Paragon to help drive new business across the country. Paragon has forged a fantastic reputation in the development finance sector in the past three years and is a well-respected operator. Our clients appreciate our sector expertise, consistent approach, and the backing of a well-capitalised bank.
“The company has a high-quality roster of clients, which I am looking to build upon. The UK has a supply-demand imbalance in the housing market and buyers appreciate the type of product our clients offer.”
Neal Moy, Paragon Bank's development finance managing director, added: “Martin is an excellent addition to our strong relationship director team. He has already been out meeting clients and making new connections and I am pleased to welcome him to the team.”
