United Trust Bank (UTB) has promoted Becky Kidby to head of regulated underwriting – bridging finance.
The senior management appointment comes as UTB restructures its bridging underwriting function into two dedicated teams – one managing regulated bridging applications; and one managing unregulated bridging applications.
Kidby joined UTB in 2016 as a bridging case manager. In her new role, she will be responsible for managing underwriting in the regulated team ensuring brokers receive a quick and efficient service and helping to develop and deliver the strategy for the bank’s further growth.
Commenting on the appointment, UTB’s director of bridging Sundeep Patel says: “Becky has played a key role in the success of UTB’s bridging division over the last few years and she fully deserves this promotion to a senior management position”.
He adds: “She will work closely with our broker partners to ensure we continue to evolve and improve our processes in light of the changing market and new Consumer Duty regulations and enable UTB to meet and exceed the expectations of our customers and brokers moving forward.”
