It promotes two members of staff
Specialist lender OSB Group has announced internal promotions within its sales team, leveraging the existing expertise and experience of its staff.
Pete Coombes (pictured left) has transitioned from field-based business development manager (BDM) to bridging specialist.
Coombes, who has been with OSB Group for over five years and previously worked as a broker, joins the bridging team led by head of specialist finance Marc Callaghan. The team focuses on supporting brokers and clients with short-term lending needs, including developer exits, property refurbishments, chain breaks, and auction financing.
Jack Cope (pictured right) will take over Coombes’s former role as field-based BDM, after moving up from an office-based BDM position. Starting his career at OSB in 2021 in broker liaison, Cope has quickly advanced within the company and now joins a network of field-based BDMs serving the southeast of England, offering financial solutions through Precise and Kent Reliance for Intermediaries.
The group recently reported a stable financial and operational performance for the first quarter of 2024.
“I am delighted with the development of our sales team with the internal promotions of Pete and Jack who both bring bags of expertise and a wealth of knowledge to their new roles,” said Adrian Moloney, OSB Group intermediary director.
“At OSB Group, we are focused on nurturing the people who work with us, developing their knowledge and skills through training and mentoring, and creating opportunities for them to grow into more challenging roles. I’m very pleased that Pete and Jack continue their career path with us.”
