Pepper Money promotes underwriter to regional development manager

Specialist lender Pepper Money has promoted Alex Hall (pictured) to regional development manager for the South West, enhancing its sales team.

Hall joined Pepper Money as an underwriter in March 2022. Over the past two years, he has excelled in assisting brokers in matching customers with specialist mortgages tailored to their needs.

In his new role, Hall will support brokers in securing mortgages for cases that do not fit mainstream lenders’ criteria, including those with adverse credit, low credit scores, or complex income structures.

“I’m so pleased to welcome Alex Hall to the Pepper Money sales team, following his successful career in our underwriting department,” said Ryan Brailsford, director of business development at Pepper Money.

“This promotion is a testament to Alex’s hard work and dedication to helping deliver solutions for brokers and their customers and it demonstrates Pepper’s commitment to helping our colleagues thrive in their careers. Alex has a huge amount of experience working on real cases to deliver positive customer outcomes, so who better to speak to about how Pepper Money can help your customers?”

Recently, the specialist lender welcomed Mark Shelper, who has rejoined the company as a national key account manager after his initial stint as a regional development manager between 2016 and 2021.

Commenting on his promotion, Hall said he was delighted to advance his career at Pepper Money by taking this new role.

“Underwriters at Pepper have daily conversations with brokers to ensure we provide valuable insight and help to their customers as best we can,” he added. “I believe it’s a natural progression to move to our sales team and work closely with brokers earlier on in the process.

“I’m looking forward to speaking with our broker partners in the South West to provide them with solutions that will empower them to help even more customers.”
