Colenko has appointed Cameron Linnell as business development manager for the North as it seeks to strengthen its relationships with brokers across the region.
Linnell (pictured) has more than a decade of experience in real estate finance, spanning underwriting and sales.
He began his career at NatWest before moving into specialist finance, holding roles at Avamore Capital and, most recently, Albatross Lending Group, where he focused on the North of England.
In his new role, Linnell will work with brokers, introducers and property professionals seeking bridging, refurbishment and development finance.
Mark Marlow, head of sales at Colenko, says: “Cameron brings an excellent combination of underwriting knowledge, sales experience and strong relationships across the Northern market.
“He understands the needs of brokers and their clients and will be a valuable addition as we continue to expand our regional coverage.”
Linnell adds: “I’m delighted to be joining Colenko and helping to build its presence across the North.
“The business has a strong reputation for pragmatic, relationship-led property finance, and I’m looking forward to reconnecting with my network and helping brokers deliver the right funding solutions for their clients.”
