Broker Conveyancing has announced the appointment of a new area director, covering the East Anglia and Essex regions.

Steve Johnson (pictured) will report to managing director Keith Young, and will be working across his region to support existing users of Broker Conveyancing as well as helping to drive new advisers to the portal.

Johnson joins the business following over 20 years working in business development roles, primarily within the mortgage lending sector, mainly across the East of England.

His most recent role was as a relationship manager with Aldermore Bank, and he has held senior BDM roles with other lenders such as Bank of Ireland, Bluestone, plus the Skipton and Norwich & Peterborough Building Societies.

Broker Conveyancing said it would continue to add further resource to the business in order to meet growing demand for its proposition within both the mortgage advice and estate agency sectors.
