Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

As we approach the final few weeks of 2021, I would like to thank you for your support over the last year and also update you on recent developments and our expansion plans for 2022.

New Sancus Appointments

To aid our substantial growth plans in the UK we have invested in some dynamic, well-known appointments in the origination of loans in the property bridging and development finance sector.

Under our sales director, Richard Whitehouse, we now have Jaxon Stevens (Head of Sales, South) heading up a sales team based in London and Mel Fourie (Head of Sales, North) heading our team based in Manchester. Mel is supported by Barry Dillon and Emma Tempest. In Jaxon’s team we have Bob Rowbotham and Tony Grillo and we are currently looking to recruit another person in each team. The expansion in our origination teams will also be supported by the appointments of experienced staff in our back-office loan management and credit teams, we shall be making these announcements in the New Year.

In Ireland we are doubling the size of the team with a loan manager and a business development manager being appointed to support Michael Mooney and Geoff Savage based in Dublin.

In Jersey, Matt Davies and Josh Eyre were recently appointed Directors and as of last week we also welcomed Neil Spacie and Evelina Woszczynska to the Jersey team; Neil as a full-time member of the business development team and Evelina as our offshore office support.

Plans for 2022

We have recently finalised our marketing and business development plans for next year which will see significant resources directed towards expansion of the Sancus brand across the Group, particularly in the UK and Ireland where we feel are the areas with the greatest potential for significant growth in the property finance sector.

Our forecasted increase in loan origination will bring new funding opportunities for our Co-Funders, not only originating from the UK and Ireland but also from Jersey, Gibraltar and Guernsey.

I would like to once again, wish you a relaxing festive time and hope you have some quality time with your family and friends over the coming month.

Kindest regards

Rory Mepham
