Vic Jannels has been appointed Non-Executive Chair of the Bridging & Development Lenders Association (BDLA), continuing his long-standing involvement with the association.
Vic stepped down from his role as CEO following the appointment of Adam Tyler at the start of the year. The newly created Non-Executive Chair position will see Vic retain a close link with the BDLA, providing strategic support and continuity as the association enters its next phase of growth.
During his six years as CEO, Vic played a key role in expanding the BDLA’s membership, strengthening its voice with regulators and policymakers, and supporting higher standards across the bridging and development finance sector.
Commenting on his appointment, Vic Jannels said:
“The BDLA is in excellent hands and I am confident that Adam will take the association to new levels of influence and engagement across the sector. With a strong pipeline of initiatives already underway and further opportunities ahead, I’m delighted to continue supporting the BDLA as it builds on its momentum and continues to grow.”
Adam Tyler, Chief Executive Officer of the BDLA, added:
“Vic’s contribution to the BDLA and the wider industry has been significant. His experience, insight and leadership will be invaluable as we continue to grow the association, develop new initiatives for members and further strengthen our role as the voice of the bridging and development lending sector. I’m very pleased he will remain closely involved as Non-Executive Chair.”
