Foundation Home Loans’ buy to let brand has hired a new regional account manager for the South of England.

Peter Olasoji joins ‘Buy to Let by Foundation’ with immediate effect and will be working on existing and new adviser relationships and helping firms make the most of their buy-to-let advice propositions, as well as promoting the lender’s product offering.

Olasoji has worked in the finance industry for 11 years, six of which have been in the property finance sector, including BDM (business development manager) roles at LendInvest and most recently at MFS, also as a BDM.

He will work across the South of England with existing regional account manager Jack Gerasimov.

Foundation director of sales Grant Hendry says: “Part of the strength of ‘Buy to Let by Foundation’ is the experience and quality of our sales team, the knowledge they can impart, and the support they can give to advisory firms.

“It’s why we always look for experienced, focused and dedicated individuals to join us, and we’re therefore very pleased to be able to welcome Peter to Foundation. He brings with him an understanding of this sector plus already well-established relationships with large numbers of advisers in the area. We’re sure he’s going to make a real positive impact for us as a lender and for all those advisers he will work with.”

Olasoji says: “The specialist needs of both advisers and their landlord borrower clients continue to grow, and as a lender, Foundation is reacting to this and ensuring there are a growing number of competitively-priced options available.

“I’ve spent the last six years working in this space, and am looking forward to growing both new and existing adviser relationships to ensure they can provide positive outcomes for their landlord borrower clients.”
