The new team has grown to 15 people in the short period since LendInvest launched its buy-to-let product in November 2017.
Among the specialist lender’s external hires was Antonia Pike (pictured above, front row left), who joins from Fleet Mortgages as buy-to-let team leader.
She previously worked in a range of roles from mortgage advising to underwriting, will be working closely with the team to monitor cases – ensuring underwriting is maintained at the highest standard – and work with management to develop and improve the lending policy.
LendInvest has also appointed Shane Wallace as a field-based BDM, covering the East of England.

He brings over 10 years of experience in the specialist lending market and joins from Aldermore, where he was most recently a commercial mortgage manager.
Mark Foley, who has been promoted internally from an underwriting role to a field-based BDM, will now cover the Midlands.
He has worked at LendInvest for almost four years.
Antonia said that the energy and enthusiasm around the office at LendInvest for the launch of the BTL product was the key driver in her move to the company.
“It’s an exciting time to be leading such a rapidly expanding team, and a great opportunity to shape and drive this product in what is proving to be a very receptive market.”
