Keystone Property Finance has appointed Steve Griffiths as its new Commercial Director, further strengthening its senior management team as the lender continues to invest in growth and enhance its proposition for brokers and their clients.
Griffiths will work closely with Chief Executive Officer David Whittaker and Managing Director Elise Coole, overseeing both sales and product marketing functions to support the next phase of Keystone’s expansion.
He brings more than 30 years of financial services experience, with deep expertise across the specialist mortgage sector.
He joins Keystone from Shawbrook Bank, where he was the Commercial Director for Retail Mortgage Brands, which included The Mortgage Lender and Bluestone.
During his time there, Griffiths played a key role in delivering significant growth, expanding distribution across the intermediary market and leading the development of product and pricing strategies.
His appointment comes at a time of strong momentum for Keystone, following the recent completion of a new funding line designed to significantly increase lending capacity. The lender has also expanded its sales team as it continues to scale its operations.
Elise Coole, Managing Director at Keystone Property Finance, said: “Steve is widely respected across the industry and brings a wealth of experience in building and delivering successful strategies within the specialist lending market.
“His appointment comes at an exciting time for our business. With our recent funding line in place, we are well positioned to strengthen our proposition and continue improving the experience we deliver to brokers and their clients. Steve’s expertise will be instrumental in helping us achieve that.”
Steve Griffiths, Commercial Director at Keystone Property Finance, added: “It’s hugely exciting to be joining Keystone. The business has built a strong reputation in the specialist buy to let market, underpinned by a clear commitment to brokers and their clients.
“I am looking forward to working with Elise, David and the wider team to build on their success, drive growth and continue enhancing the proposition, reinforcing Keystone’s position as a trusted lending choice for intermediaries.
