"We are keen to recruit new business development managers who have experience in building, and then managing strong relationships with, a portfolio of commercial clients."
Sonia spent more than 18 years working at NatWest before moving to specialist lender Together as a corporate director. She has also held previous roles at Santander UK and Royal Bank of Scotland.
Her appointment is set to strengthen the support Redwood provide to brokers across the Midlands.
Gary Wilkinson, CEO and co-founder of Redwood Bank, said: “Sonia’s track record with previous banks is impressive. She has proven she’s more than capable of delivering fantastic customer service, which is the top priority for Redwood, and satisfaction is consistently at well over 90 per cent among our customers.
“In order to meet increased demand, we are keen to recruit new business development managers who have experience in building, and then managing strong relationships with, a portfolio of commercial clients. When we met Sonia, she fitted the bill perfectly.
“Sonia’s appointment also further demonstrates our commitment to the Women in Finance Charter, which encourages financial services to provide a balanced workforce across gender. We’re very passionate about accelerating gender equality and we feel we’re certainly moving in the right direction when it comes to further diversifying the make-up of our staff workforce.”
