Liam Lawlor has joined Octane Capital as a senior business development manager (BDM).
Lawlor (pictured) joins from Octopus Property and will work alongside former colleague Justin Cooper.
He previously worked at Metro Bank as a senior BDM for Central London.
Mark Posniak, managing director of Octane Capital, said: “Liam is a highly experienced BDM with fantastic technical knowledge and no end of contacts. There’s no doubt he will play a key role in helping us achieve the aggressive growth targets we have set ourselves.
“The fact that he has worked with many of the senior team here in the past will also serve him well and enable him to hit the ground running.”
Lawlor added: “There’s something special happening at Octane Capital and I want to be a part of it. I’ve worked with many of the senior management team in the past and to be with them from close to the start of their next big venture is a massive opportunity.
“What you have here is a small and entrepreneurial team vibe, big ambitions and the skills and expertise to achieve them. There’s a charisma and dynamism at Octane that I haven’t experienced before.”
