Arlene has joined the Scottish team after working as a self-employed commercial broker for a year, prior to that she worked for the National Health Service as a fund manager.
Arlene’s main responsibility will be to grow the business by attracting new customers with the wide range of products and services SMS can offer. She explains: “I need to ensure I become the face of SMS in Scotland, developing new business and ensuring existing customers continue to receive the high level of service they are accustomed to.”
Arlene continues: “SMS is a very forward thinking company. Coming from a commercial background SMS offer the complete package for the broker – they deal with one company and have access to a range of residential and commercial mortgages, and secured loans.
She concludes, “The Scottish market holds huge potential, and SMS’s branded lending options, allowing total control of the process, put us ahead of the competition in the non-conforming market.”
Laura Cummings, Scottish branch manger at SMS comments: “I am glad to welcome Arlene to the company, I am sure she will play a crucial role in realising the potential of the Scottish non-conforming mortgage market and building upon the success we have enjoyed since opening last year.”
