Fleet Mortgages announces office expansion in two regional centres

25 August 2022

Fleet Mortgages, the buy-to-let specialist lender, has today (25th August 2022) announced the expansion of its offices in two locations across the country.

From the middle of August, the lender has taken over a third floor at its Flagship House head office in Fleet, in order to accommodate a growing number of employees across all its teams.

The lender said it had been recruiting heavily over the past few months in its core region, and the new staff would now be housed in its expanded office space.

Fleet has also expanded into parent company, Starling Bank’s Cardiff office with an initial team of underwriters and said it is looking to take more space in Wales’ capital city in order to incorporate further recruitment in this department.

The lender said it continues to recruit across a wide variety of roles and would continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

Steve Cox, Chief Commercial Officer at Fleet Mortgages, commented:

“Since the start of 2022, and even more so in recent months, we have been focused on a full-scale recruitment drive across all departments, and also now in two distinct regional centres. This drive has meant we have added a considerable amount of human resource, both here in Fleet and also now in Cardiff, so there has been a need to expand our office footprint in order to house these new recruits, and to also future-proof the business.

“Given record new business volumes, being able to deliver quality service to our intermediary partners is of tantamount importance and that’s the sole purpose of our growth. This has been a very busy time for Fleet, in terms of meeting growing demand, and we’re pleased to be able to announce the expansion of our operation further in order to process today’s workload but also hit our ambitious growth plans.”
