MPowered Mortgages has appointed Lichelle Samra as a key account manager for the Midlands region.
Samra joins from NatWest, where she was a business development manager. Prior to this she worked as a mortgage business development manager for Prosperity Wealth, working with UK and overseas clients, and has also held roles at Barclays and The Royal Bank of Scotland.
In her new role she will report into MPowered Mortgages sales director Matt Surridge.
Surridge says the appointment was part of the company’s plans to expand its reach in the Midlands and improve the services it offers brokers in the region.
He adds: “[Sumra’s] knowledge and extensive experience working with foreign nationals across global markets will be invaluable as we look to support foreign nationals fulfil their aspirations to be homeowners in the UK.”
MPowered has recently updated it criteria for foreign nationals which included increasing LTV to 90% for foreign nationals.
Surridge adds that MPowered remains committed to using technology, including AI to speed up the mortgage process for brokers using its mortgage original platform.
