Dignum joins HTB with more than 10 years of experience in the development finance sector after previously working at NatWest. 

He joined NatWest in Manchester as a graduate in 2009, where he undertook numerous roles within the real estate business. 

Most recently Dignum served as director, covering the wider North West market but with a focus on Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Merseyside.

In his new role, he will be tasked with winning new development finance business for HTB and developing those client relationships into longer-term partnerships.

Commenting on his new role, Dignum says: “I’m excited to have joined HTB at what is the start of its next phase of growth. HTB has a fantastic development finance product which is continuously evolving and improving.”

HTB managing director for development finance Alex Upton adds: “It’s great to welcome Andrew on board. He will play a key role in our growth strategy; his extensive knowledge of more niche sectors such as PBSA and pre-let commercial will allow us to create new products and solutions for our developers who specialise in these markets.”
