Davidson said: “Fluent Money Group is continuing to expand and our role at Fluent for Advisers encompasses not just our core second charge offering, but also includes our specialist first charge and later life lending propositions.

“We have been delighted that so many of our partners wholeheartedly welcomed the expansion of the services we offer.

“To that end, it was important that we were able to increase the support we provide. Caroline, Rebecca and James are already making a difference and looking forward to further engaging with our increasing number of introducer partners.”

Burton has been with Fluent for almost five years. Originally, he was a loans officer with Fluent Loans, before moving on to Fluent for Advisers as a business development officer, a role he held for over three years. He joins the two existing BDMs.
