LendInvest hires two BDMs

LendInvest has appointed two business development managers (BDM).

Nigel Robbins will be BDM for the South West of England and Abby Challen for Central and Greater London.

Robbins joins LendInvest from Magellan, where he was a regional sales manager.

Challen joins the team from Enterprise Finance, where she worked as a senior BDM.

Ian Boden, sales director at LendInvest, said: “After what has already been a busy year for the business, appetite for LendInvest’s loan products is only growing.

“Field-based BDMs are a huge support to our lean in-house sales desk.

“Their deep local networks ensure our technology driven processes and best practice customer service get right in front of borrowers and brokers at their desks throughout the country.

“We are delighted to announce these key hires who bring a broad range of experience to the team.”

Robbins has 23 years’ experience in financial services and has worked in a series of business development roles including regional sales manager for Precise.

Challen has previously operated nationally as both a broker and packager.
