According to Liberty, he is best placed to take the lender into “a new phase of sales support and growth”.

“Sof has deep knowledge and experience working with business partners and will help to expand our brokers sales and support capabilities at a time when customers need the help of the broking industry more than ever before,” he said.
“It’s been a tough year, but we’ve continued our commitment to the broker channel, remained open for business, grown our team and expanded our product lines to help brokers assist even more customers. This new appointment is one more way to illustrate that we are listening to the needs of our business partners and showing up for them,” Mr Mohnacheff added.
Speaking of his appointment, Mr Tsialtas said he was excited to leverage his industry and Liberty experience to continue to support brokers in different ways.
“We’re super focused on supporting brokers as they grow and help more customers in different ways,” he said.
