Spicerhaart Corporate Sales enhances lender support with new senior appointment

22 July 2025

Spicerhaart Corporate Sales, the asset management arm of one of the UK’s largest property groups, has strengthened its expert team with the appointment of David Hunter as client account manager.

In his new role, David will be working closely with clients, including major banks, building societies and mortgage lenders to support the management of their property portfolios. Working with all parties, David will ensure that stock or any distressed assets are managed effectively with an appropriate exit strategy, delivering a positive outcome for both the lender and the borrower.

David brings almost four decades of experience and market knowledge to the Corporate Sales team from across both the mortgage and property market, and a proven track record of relationship management. He joins from Rockstead, where he served as senior business development manager for two years.

Prior to this, David spent more than six years with NatWest Intermediary Solutions (NWIS), first as a corporate account manager within the NWIS management team responsible for risk, compliance and governance, as well as business development and most recently as property risk and proposition manager for credit strategy.

Across eight years, David also worked within and ultimately managed the third party supplier management team (debt management) at UKAR – the company set up to manage the assets of Northern Rock and Bradford & Bingley. During his time, David collaboratively worked with suppliers to support the debt management function.

David Hunter said:

“I am really pleased to join the team at Spicerhaart Corporate Sales and I am excited by the opportunity to use my market knowledge and experience from across 37 years to contribute to its future success. Spicerhaart has built a fantastic team and a really strong proposition which delivers significant value to all parties involved in the mortgage and property process. I look forward to working with our clients, building relationships and identifying new opportunities.”

David Miller, divisional director at Spicerhaart Corporate Sales, adds:

“Spicerhaart Corporate Sales has a formidable reputation as a trusted partner for some of the UK’s biggest financial institutions, supporting the successful management of their assets. With his wealth of knowledge and experience in this sector, David is a tremendous addition to our team as we continue to scale and establish new partnerships with banks, building societies and other financial/property companies.

“As lenders continue to demonstrate that repossession is very much a last resort, we have continued to see high demand for our services. Alongside proactive strategies to understand value and any potential risk within a mortgage book, we also work closely with lenders through assisted voluntary sale schemes to achieve the best possible price in the shortest amount of time. Most importantly, this approach enables us to deliver positive outcomes for both the lender and the borrower.”
