BDM team at LiveMore is growing

18 July 2022

LiveMore is expanding its sales and broker support to meet the growing demand for interest-only mortgages in the 50 plus age group.

Margarita Genovesa has been an integral member of the sales team since December 2020 and now takes up the position of business development manager for the London Region.

Having worked within the financial services industry for over 30 years, Margarita brings a wealth of experience to an already expert and high performing team. Her previous roles include mortgage adviser and branch manager at Santander, operations manager for John Charcol and business development manager at Sainsbury’s Bank.

As LiveMore reaches its second year in business, the London-based lender’s growth story continues having recently opened a new office in Bristol and expanded its lending into Scotland.

This expansion of business development team is the next phase of LiveMore’s evolution and its mission to deliver more choice and better customer outcomes for an underserved but growing sector of society. The recently published Census data bears this out with 18.6% of the population aged over 65 in 2021 (11.1 million people) up from 16.4% (9.2 million people) in 2011.

Commenting on her appointment Margarita Genovesa said:

“I’m really looking forward to this new role and being able to meet more brokers from the London catchment and spread the word about LiveMore.

“It’s an exciting time for us as we have so many developments in our offering to make it easier for brokers’ customers aged 50 to 90+ to enjoy their later life.”

Alison Pallett, managing director of sales at LiveMore, added:

“Margarita’s experience and knowledge of the sector will help us to further widen our reach within this underserved market and her promotion is a natural and well-deserved progression within the team.

“By increasing our business development team, it will help us on our mission to revolutionise the later life lending market.”
