Specialist Lending 2.0
We speak to two members of the Octane Capital team, Shrena Patel, Senior Business Development Manager, and Liam Lawlor, Sales Director
Shrena, what does a typical week at Octane Capital look like for you? It’s varied and always busy. But, most of all, it’s about relationships. I look after a number of existing brokers in London and the South East and am always on the lookout for new intermediaries to partner with, too, so I juggle both aspects. I spend a lot of time collaborating to put deals together and invest much of my week in supporting the various components of a case such as liaising with lawyers and valuers—and even the end client directly. I also like to keep in touch proactively and that doesn’t always mean chasing for business but is often about providing information on the market or the industry to ensure that my team is better informed on what’s going on out there.
