Aspen promotes head of underwriting to newly created director role




Aspen has promoted Saif Khalique (pictured above) to the newly established director of underwriting role.

Saif initially joined the lender through the graduate recruitment scheme in December 2019 as part of the underwriting team.

In 2023 he joined the management team and has since assisted with the development of the underwriting team, taking on the role of head of underwriting in February 2024 following the completion of his Masters in Real Estate and Finance at Henley Business School.


As a director, his new responsibilities will include the day-to-day operation and management of the underwriting team, along with process enhancement and the organisation of wider training.

As part of the wider management team he will be focused on Aspen’s aim for 2026: to exceed £1bn in total lending since inception.

Jack Coombs, COO at S&U PLC, parent company of Aspen, commented: “Saif’s promotion is very well deserved. We welcome him to the Aspen board and look forward to seeing the far-reaching contribution he will surely make in driving and improving the business through our next exciting growth phase.”
