Hampshire Trust Bank (HTB) has named Lorenzo Satchell as its new bridging head of sales.

Satchell arrives at HTB from Together, where he worked in various roles for a total of 12 years, most recently as a specialist key account manager.

Other jobs in his 30 years of experience in property finance include working as a director at First 4 Bridging.

In his latest role, as well as overseeing his sales team, Satchell’s duties will include making new hires over the next 12 months.

HTB director of bridging Jamie Jolly says: “I’m incredibly pleased to welcome Lorenzo to HTB. We wanted someone with an exceptional level of experience, who really understands the broker community and has incredibly strong relationships with the key introducers who operate within the space and we’ve got that in Lorenzo.

“I have personally always admired Lorenzo as a person, his approach and work ethic as well as his standing within the market. He is someone who will really bolster the team, will add massive value across all of our functions and is brilliant at communication and accountability.

“It’s a massive tick for me and I am hugely enthused and excited to witness Lorenzo stamp his own mark on the sales function and boost our relationships with our partners.”

And Satchell comments: “I am excited to be joining HTB and being reunited with Jamie Jolly – I very much enjoyed working with him closely in the past and am looking forward to continuing where we left off.

“The bank has truly developed their bridging proposition over the past year and I hope we can bang our drum even more going into 2023 – we’ll certainly have plenty of success to talk about. I look forward to being out on the road from day one, talking to our key partners about our bridging proposition.”
