He swiftly progressed and joined Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward as the company’s first mortgage broker in 1989 where he continued to build experience and knowledge of the industry.

It is a great challenge and one which I am embracing wholeheartedly. There is enormous potential in the region and I am raising the bar of expectation; not only the level of professional service which we provide to our clients, but also the level of performance from the mortgage brokers in the region.”
John Philips, financial services dDirector of Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward, added: “Malcolm’s unrivalled experience and commercial acumen stood him in perfect stead to be successful in selection as the regional sales director. He has proved himself to be a dedicated and highly successful member of the FS team and I am confident that he will surpass all expectations in his new role.”
