Bill Warren joins RAMP

He will be responsible for managing the growth and development of RAMP’s new associate proposition.

He will also look after recruitment, lender liaison and product and services development for the new associate group. Three associate members, KGB Packaging, Formula Mortgage and Clear Mortgage Administration, have already joined and the intention is to recruit up to ten associate members by the end of the year.

Bill Warren has previously worked for a number of lenders, including Britannia, Bristol & West and National & Provincial, before becoming national compliance manager for the MCCB and four years ago joined Complete Mortgage & Loan Services as compliance director to drive forward their regulatory and business development growth.

Warren said: “This is an exciting new challenge for me and I am delighted to be joining another top class organisation that has put the issue of compliance at the centre of its operation. I am looking forward to working with the associate members and our lender partners and working closely with RAMP’s compliance team although I will not be directly involved in managing the group’s compliance activity.”

John Rice, RAMP’s managing director, said: “Bill’s appointment is excellent news for RAMP. He has the experience and the respect of everyone within the industry and will do a great job in leading the new associate members group within the wider RAMP family. I’m sure many will agree that this move confirms the seriousness of our intentions to further develop as the UK’s premier mortgage distributor alliance.”
