Chesterfield-based Bridge Help has appointed Iona Reid to its business development team.
Iona brings a background in property sales and lettings to the role, joining the short-term commercial finance provider from Keepmoat Homes where she was a sales executive. Prior to this, she was a lettings manager with a national estate agent.
In her new role as business development manager, Iona will be working with Bridge Help’s broker network supporting them to secure bridging finance for auction purchases, commercial and semi-commercial acquisitions and buy-to-let properties, as well as re-financing existing loans.
Her appointment follows growth at Bridge Help and a surge in new enquiries.
Iona commented on her new appointment, saying: “I am really looking forward to working with such a supportive team and within the short-term finance sector. I have plenty of transferable skills from previous roles within the property industry and I’m inspired by new manager, Katie and what she has achieved!”
Welcoming Iona to the team, Katie Snodden, head of sales at Bridge Help, added: “Iona is a welcome addition to the team as we continue to increase the support we offer to brokers across England and Wales. Her experience in sales and property makes her well-placed to help us continue to deliver great outcomes for their clients.”
