Afin Bank has appointed Rob Lankey (pictured above) as director of credit.
Rob has over 35 years’ experience in the industry, including executive roles at Norwich and Peterborough Building Society.
He was also one of the founders at Aldermore and previously served as CEO of the NACFB.
In his new role, he will oversee the day-to-day management of mortgage application decisions as well as the credit risk element of product development.
“Rob brings years of industry and management experience, but he also has a great understanding of customer needs, which is vital for a bank like Afin that wants to help more people get a home of their own,” said Nicola Tunney, COO at Afin Bank.
“He will be a great asset to the bank and the team.”
Rob added: “Afin caught my attention because it’s an interesting idea, we’re addressing a need in the market, and there’s nothing else like it out there.
“Most of the other lenders I have helped to build over my career have also been focused on underserved borrowers, so this is a perfect fit for me.”
