Martin Hillyer has been hired as the intermediary relationship director by Hampden & Co. He will report to the bank’s head of professional partnerships, Hannah Berridge.
In order to help clients tailor borrowing options, Hillyer’s primary responsibility in this post will be cultivating and expanding relationships with mortgage intermediaries.
Mortgage brokers and other professional intermediaries, including wealth managers, financial advisers, accountants, and solicitors, have shown a considerable demand for Hampden & Co’s lending, deposits, and daily banking services.
In August, Hampden & Co released its first-half 2023 results, which showed that the number of clients had increased by 8% to almost 5,000, mostly due to a significant increase in introductions from intermediaries.
As a senior business development executive, Hillyer oversaw partnerships with introducers and intermediaries at Weatherbys Private Bank before joining Hampden & Co.
In addition, he has held prominent positions at Barclays, such as head of key clients – wealth business development.
