Kensington Mortgages appoints new MD

Bier brings a wealth of valuable experience to Kensington. Until 1999 he was a managing partner at Monitor Company, the strategy consultancy, where he led their retail financial services practice in Europe. During his 11 years with Monitor he led major assignments with many UK financial services providers, including the Britannia Building Society where he held COO responsibilities and spearheaded the launch of Verso (now part of Platform Home Loans). More recently he was the Group Managing Director of Antfactory, a venture capital and corporate finance advisory firm, where he led a number of transactions involving retail financial services firms.

John Maltby said, “I am delighted Rob has joined Kensington Mortgages. His appointment both broadens and strengthens the management team, as we continue to develop the business. Rob and his team will be focused, in particular, on developing the tremendous opportunities for further growth that exist in our core specialist mortgage market.”

Rob Bier added, “Kensington Mortgages has established an impressive track record and leadership position in its market. I am very much looking forward to building on these achievements and contributing to its future success.”
