Aldermore assigns 'first class hire' to senior role

Aldermore Bank has appointed Nicola Goldie (pictured) as head of strategic partnerships and growth, joining the lender’s property division to bulk up its expertise in the mortgage market.

Goldie, who has 16 years of experience in the mortgages industry, joins Aldermore from Virgin Money, where she was most recently head of national accounts. She also spent several years at Lloyds Bank as a national account manager.

At Aldermore, her main responsibilities include driving the delivery of intermediary channel ambitions through joining up strategic and tactical objectives across the lender’s distribution partnerships.

She is also expected to grow the lender’s market reach through a sustainable engagement programme with intermediary partners, elevate Aldermore’s share of voice in the industry, and lead her team to deliver best in class support for the bank’s network of intermediaries.

Goldie was recognised as an industry change maker, and in both 2022 and 2023, she was named one of the Elite Women by Mortgage Introducer.

In addition to her role at Aldermore, Goldie will continue as a director for the Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association (IMLA).

“Nicola is a first class hire and someone who will be influential in supporting our ambition to grow,” stated Jon Cooper, head of mortgages at Aldermore. “She fits into the business on a cultural level, while also bringing such significant expertise. Well-respected by brokers and industry stakeholders for her talent and commitment, we’re thrilled to have her aboard.”

Commenting on her appointment, Goldie said she was excited to be joining Aldermore.

“From the start, I could immediately see that Aldermore has so much potential,” she said. “I’m looking forward to being a driving force in supporting the bank to succeed, as it offers an even more compelling service for brokers and their clients in the years ahead.”
