Since joining Lehman Brothers Mortgage Capital in May 2006 as a managing director and chief operating officer for the UK, Simon has underlined his abilities in a number of areas, in particular by leading the organisation through a period of substantial change within its operations and locations and helping to frame its future strategy for the UK business.
Bill Bilsborough commented: “I am delighted to announce Simon’s promotion to CEO of the mortgage capital businesses in the UK and Ireland. Simon has been doing a fantastic job and this appointment will sharpen the control and accountability of our UK business. It will also give me more capacity to drive our expansion and develop our people through initiatives like the Service Academy. I wish Simon every success in his new and expanded role.”
