CHL Mortgages has appointed Shaun Persaud as business development manager (BDM) for Essex and East Anglia.

Persaud joins CHL Mortgages from Omega Commercial Solutions, where he worked as a broker.

Previously, he worked as a commercial broker at Go Finance and as a mortgage broker at Taylor Rose Financial Services.

CHL Mortgages commercial director Ross Turrell says: “Shaun brings a wealth of knowledge to the position which he’s gained from working in a number of different roles in financial services.”

“It’s this well-rounded experience which will stand him in good stead and which I’m sure will go down very well with brokers looking for support with placing their cases.”

Persaud adds: “I’m really looking forward to taking my previous experiences and things I’ve learnt along the way and applying them to a BDM role.”
