"The appointment of Phil means that we can push ahead with hugely exciting plans to increase the number of financial solutions for the over 50s"
Phil Quinn joins LiveMore from Together, where he has been the head of national accounts since 2020. In a career that spans 12 years in the mortgage industry he has previously worked at Pepper Money, Scottish Widows and Halifax.
As part of the changes, Alison Pallett will move from managing director of sales to become a board adviser for LiveMore.
The changes will enable Alison to work more strategically with the board of directors, while Phil takes over the tactical day-to-day operations.
The new hire follows the appointment of Martyn Evans last week from Landbay, to become LiveMore's first dedicated regional sales manager for the north of England and Scotland.
In addition to growing its sales and business development teams, LiveMore is also looking to expand its underwriting team with new appointments to be announced in the next few weeks.
Alison Pallett, said: “This is a strategic move for me which enables me to remain an active part of the LiveMore journey having been there since the beginning. It means I can continue to play a pivotal role in the later life lending market, while also enabling me to expand my horizons beyond LiveMore.
"The appointment of Phil means that we can push ahead with hugely exciting plans to increase the number of financial solutions for the over 50s, providing mortgages for people into their nineties. By increasing our business development team, it will help us on our mission to revolutionise the later life lending market.”
Phil Quinn commented: “LiveMore is a very exciting company and even though it’s only been operating for two years it is already making huge waves in the later life lending market. Coming into a high-growth business like LiveMore at this point of its development was a prospect not to be missed, providing the opportunity to make a real difference to brokers, to the over-50s and to the shape of the market.”
