UTB Mortgages Appoints Frankie Kitchen to London BDM Role

27 September 2024

Frankie Kitchen has joined United Trust Bank (UTB) Mortgages for Intermediaries as Business Development Manager looking after mortgage brokers and introducers based across London and the Midlands.

Frankie’s career in banking started in 2004 and for the last 9 years he has worked at Metro Bank, becoming one of the lender’s most respected and successful BDMs. Prior to joining Metro Bank, Frankie has also worked in retail banking roles with NatWest and Lloyds.

In his new role, Frankie will be largely focused on increasing awareness and driving growth of UTB’s specialist mortgage range amongst intermediaries based in and around London and the Midlands, particularly those with clients requiring larger loans, and requirements or circumstances that may fall outside of a mainstream lenders’ appetites.

Caroline Mirakian, Sales & Marketing Director – Mortgages, at United Trust Bank said: “UTB Mortgages has established a fantastic reputation in the Second Charge market and more recently in the specialist BTL sector. However, the specialist residential mortgage market is largely untapped and presents an excellent opportunity for substantial further growth and one which Frankie will be driving forward for us.

“I am delighted to have Frankie on board. I have had the pleasure of working with him before and he has superb knowledge and unstoppable enthusiasm. He is really looking forward to getting out and visiting our broker partners.

“Frankie is joining a brilliant sales team with a shared goal of making UTB Mortgages the go-to lender for brokers with customers who need a proactive specialist mortgage lender. UTB has the products, the rates, the appetite and the skills to provide a great service to brokers and excellent outcomes for borrowers. Frankie and the rest of the team will be out there showing brokers exactly what UTB can do for them and their clients.”
