MT Finance Group has announced the promotion of Gareth Lewis to Deputy Chief Executive Officer. Lewis, who previously served as Managing Director, will take on expanded responsibilities with oversight over the entire group.

This strategic appointment underscores MT Finance’s strong market position and continued commitment to developing, recognising, and rewarding the achievements of its employees.

Having joined the award-winning lender in 2018, Gareth has been instrumental in overseeing product development including the launch of the regulated bridging and buy-to-let and commercial divisions within the group. He has worked to accelerate MT Finance’s expansion, steering the business through critical seasons like the pandemic and the fallout from the 2022 September mini-Budget, and has assisted in the process of securing over £2.5 billion from multiple funding partners.

Joshua Elash, Director & Founder of MT Finance, comments:

“Gareth has been with us for seven years and has been a huge part of the growth and success we have enjoyed during this period. He has come to epitomise our core values and is incredibly well respected both internally and throughout the market. We are looking forward excitedly to what we can continue to achieve under Gareth’s leadership in the years to come. It is a natural step for Gareth to assume the role of Deputy Chief Executive Officer, and we are extremely confident that he will be exceptional.” 

Gareth Lewis, Deputy Chief Executive Officer at MT Finance, says:

“I am honoured to have been promoted to Deputy Chief Executive Officer. I am extremely proud of everything we have achieved over the past eight years and am grateful to be able to work with such a dedicated team. I am looking forward to leading MT Finance on our growth journey in the months and years ahead.”
