Second charge specialist V Loans has expanded its bridging team with theappointments of Jorge Gómez Fernández as a business development manager and Farah Akhtar as a case manager.

Fernández was previously a mortgage underwriting manager at Haya Real Estate leading a team of 11 people and also worked at Bankia and Caja Madrid.
