- Caroline Mirakian, sales and marketing director at United Trust Bank
United Trust Bank has promoted Chris Pedlar to a new head of sales role, taking over responsibility of the Bank’s mortgage BDM team. He will also take the lead in delivering the sales strategy across the Bank’s specialist residential, buy-to-let and second charge product ranges.
Chris joined UTB in 2017 and has over two decades of experience in the financial services industry. In his previous role with the Bank, Chris was head of specialist distribution for the North of England and became an integral part of the senior sales management team.
Chris’s promotion is the latest of a number of recent people moves within UTB’s mortgages team. The Bank recently announced new roles and promotions for Barry Luhmann, Dave Burke, Mareeza Mitri and Fran Arnold.
Caroline Mirakian, sales and marketing director at United Trust Bank, said: “Chris’s promotion recognises both his hard work and dedication to the team and the skills he will bring to the role. He is an inspirational sales leader and I’m sure he will excel in delivering the ambitious targets we have set ourselves for next year.
“I would like to congratulate Chris on his promotion which is fully deserved. It’s another great example of our desire to develop home-grown talent and give our people the opportunity to take on new challenges, to encourage them to reach their full potential and to support them as they build successful careers”.
