Accord hires three BDMs

Accord Mortgages has appointed three business development managers (BDM), Kathy Clark for the London and South area, Sian Varone for the London North area and Adam Parker for the Thames Valley area.

Clark previously managed the flagship Yorkshire Building Society (YBS) branch on the King’s Road in Chelsea and more recently, has been responsible for managing a cluster of retail branches across the south east.

Coming from an underwriting background, Varone has worked closely with the Accord team for years and has been instrumental in developing the lender’s approach to offering mortgages for contractors. Parker was previously YBS branch manager in Bromley and has worked for the Yorkshire for 15 years.

Jeremy Duncombe, director of intermediaries at Accord, said: “Over the past 12 months, we have significantly increased the size of our sales team, to ensure that we add as much value to our broker relationships as possible.

“In an ever-changing market, the BDM role is increasingly important, and the experience of Kathy, Sian and Adam will allow us to speak to more brokers face to face, and tailor our solutions to their needs.”
