Ryan Houssart joins Octane from Octopus Real Estate.
Octane Capital has appointed Ryan Houssart to its sales support team.
Houssart joins Octane from Octopus Real Estate where he worked as a case manager, dealing primarily with credit.
Houssart will work closely with Octane’s BDMs to ensure service levels remain as loan volumes increase.
He will report into Oli Greenspan, head of marketing and internal sales.
Mark Posniak, managing director at Octane Capital, said: “Ryan wanted to be challenged and the chance to think more commercially around applications, and it’s a chance we were happy to give him.
"He has a great understanding of risk, which is the bedrock of any decent salesperson within the specialist lending sector, and is hungry to get involved right at the coalface.
"We’re thrilled to have him onboard and are confident he will be a huge asset to the team.”
Houssart added: “A sales role has always been in my sights and it’s fantastic that Octane have given me the opportunity to prove myself.
"Octane do things in a way no other lender does and I can’t wait to learn from some of the most experienced people in the industry.
"Hopefully I can become a valuable addition to the team here.”
