Nottingham Building Society has appointed Aaron Shinwell as chief lending officer.

Shinwell joins Nottingham Building Society from Santander UK, where he served as commercial director of homes. In this role, he was responsible for overseeing mortgage strategy, pricing, proposition development, and portfolio management.

During his time at Santander, he managed the commercial, customer and transformation priorities for the mortgage business.

Prior to that, he held senior leadership roles at HSBC and Lloyds Banking Group.

Shinwell will succeed Praven Subbramoney, who is leaving Nottingham Building Society to pursue a new opportunity.

The current head of mortgage product and proposition Greg Went will assume the chief lending officer role and join the executive team on an interim basis until Shinwell takes up the position permanently.

Nottingham Building Society chief executive officer Sue Hayes says: “We are delighted to welcome Aaron to Nottingham Building Society. His deep expertise in mortgage strategy, transformation, and customer-focused innovation makes him a fantastic addition to our leadership team.”

“His appointment reinforces our commitment to delivering great value and service to our members while strengthening our lending proposition in an evolving market.”

“I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to Praven for his significant contribution to the Society. He has played a key role in shaping our lending strategy, and we wish him every success in his future endeavours.”
