Ami, Imla and Diff mentoring scheme appeals for applicants  

By: ameer@trustedteam.com

The cross-industry mentoring programme for brokers and other property professionals launched in June is looking for more applicants.  

The scheme, run by the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries, the Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association and The Diversity and Inclusivity Finance Forum, has so far signed up 133 mentors and 48 mentees.  

The free initiative is open to lenders, insurers and intermediaries, and aims to boost the skills, career potential and opportunities of those who take part.   

Ami managing director Robert Sinclair says: “Mentoring offers a raft of advantages to mentees, from knowledge transfer and skills development to enhanced networking opportunities, confidence building, personal growth, industry insight . . . the list goes on.   

“This scheme provides a free and easily accessible framework for setting up the mentor/mentee relationship and we would love to see more people benefit from what it has to offer.”  

Aldermore head of strategic partnerships & growth and a member of Imla’s management committee Nicola Goldie adds: “We’re delighted that so many people have signed up to become mentors through the scheme, demonstrating their willingness to devote time and energy to sharing their knowledge and expertise and helping to progress others on their career paths.”  

A section of the workinginmortgages.org.uk website is dedicated to the scheme and holds a series of short introductory videos.
