Central, founded by Andrew Turner in 1988 and part of CT Capital PLC, has been a leading broker of Secured and Unsecured Loans for almost 25 years. Earlier this year they launched The Loan Engine which has the unique benefit of offering an instant decision to introducers for their applications.
The Loan Engine plans to significantly increase its presence in the Mortgage Broker and IFA marketplace to help them capitalise on the increasing opportunities to offer secured loans to their customers.
Jonathan joins from Datamonitor where he was Global COO, and CoStar Group inc where he was the European CEO. In each role his principal responsibilities were the creation of revenue growth through improved relationship-based sales and marketing activity, underpinned by company-wide process enhancement.
Steve has over 25 years experience of the Consumer Finance sector having previously been Sales Director at First National Retail Finance, and Head of Business Development at specialist credit card provider SAV Credit.
Both appointments are complimented by further additional recruitment programs in outbound sales teams and other disciplines.
Jonathan Bray said:
"Central’s reputation is unparalleled in the sector. I am delighted to be part of its growth strategy for 2012 and beyond. We have introduced multiple new initiatives in the last four months and have many more on the blocks. I am grateful to everyone, inside the company and from colleagues outside who have helped us make those changes."
Steve Case said:
"I'm delighted to join Central. They have an excellent reputation stretching back over many years and Introducers can feel confident placing their customers with a business built on integrity and professionalism with strong financial resources. The Loan Engine is a unique service and I am looking forward to working with IFA’s and Mortgage Brokers to help them generate significant amounts of incremental revenue."
