The broker network has hired Alan Baldwin as director of compliance, responsible for the oversight of the compliance teams and delivering appointed representative supervision and preparing Consumer Duty papers across the business. He previously worked at Masthaven as complaints manager for just under two years.

His role will be to help drive more efficiencies across the mortgage application process, particularly for the specialist lending and commercial markets. He previously worked at Shawbrook for seven-and-half years in a variety of roles, leaving as underwriting team leader.

“Despite the question about market conditions, we felt it was very important to provide greater strength to these areas of the business so we can deliver on our ambitious growth plans.”
