We are proud to announce that the Society has recently been named ‘Mortgage Lender of the Year’ in the Yorkshire Financial Awards 2022!
This is based on the judges’ assessment that: “Beverley Building Society typifies the local focus championed by the Yorkshire Financial Awards. It is a personal-touch lender, focusing on the needs of its community’s most underserved members. Beverley Building Society has been vital over the past 18 months, resulting in significant customer retention. An example that must be followed.”
This is the third year in which we have been shortlisted for the awards, and this year we were joined in this category by Metro Bank, as well as being also shortlisted for ‘Lender of the Year’.
Several members of our mortgage team, including Jacob Chambers and Jess Briggs, pictured, attended the prestigious awards ceremony at the New Dock Hall in Leeds on Thursday, 24 February.
Our Chief Executive Karl Elliott said: “This is the culmination of a huge effort on behalf of our entire team, to stay true to our ethos of helping those people underserved by the mainstream mortgage market to achieve their homeownership aspirations.
“We’ve redoubled our efforts during the historically challenging times surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic to try to help borrowers such as the self-employed, families trying to help one another get a footing on the mortgage ladder, those using their homes partly for business purposes and people looking to borrow later in life.
“With initiatives like our Bounce Back Mortgage, launched in 2020 to help self-employed people get back on track following the worst of the COVID-19 lockdowns, we’ve tried to be there for borrowers, often when other, bigger players were not.
“I’m hugely proud of our team for all their efforts, and would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to the Yorkshire Financial Awards team for this important recognition of what we’re trying to do.”
With a total of 19 categories, ranging from ‘Financial Adviser of the Year’ to ‘Innovative Product of the Year’, the awards were established as a mechanism for recognising ‘outstanding financial services across the county’, including the ‘teams and individuals in them who work tirelessly to serve their customers and clients’.
