David Murphy appointed by Buildstore

David joins BuildStore after forging a highly successful sales and marketing career within Lloyds Banking Group, and prior to that, the Royal Bank of Scotland Group

During his career at Lloyds Banking Group, David fulfilled a broad range of sales and marketing roles, including sales and marketing director for The Mortgage Business, and latterly head of national accounts for BM Solutions.

David comments: “I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the former HBoS Group, and was very impressed with the new culture within LBG. I am very confident that the new group will remain a mainstay for the intermediary sector.”

His new role at BuildStore will see him take responsibility for all aspects of marketing and sales for Buildstore Financial Services Ltd; leading teams supporting both intermediary and direct distribution and sales channels. Other responsibilities will include lender and key relationship liaison.

“This is an exciting time to be joining BuildStore,” says David. “I have long been a great advocate of self build, and BuildStore in particular. This is a substantial and growing market in the UK, with enormous potential for further growth.

“BuildStore occupies an enviable position as the leading supplier and source of expertise in the market, having built an outstanding proposition over more than ten years. The company is totally committed to becoming the clear choice for customers and intermediary distributors who are looking to self build, or renovate or convert an existing property.”

BuildStore’s CEO Raymond Connor adds: “David will be a key member of our senior management team. His role is very important in driving our financial services proposition forward. David comes with a tremendous track record in financial services, and I am sure he will play a major part in helping Buildstore achieve its goals.”
