JACKSON, Miss.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Trustmark National Bank recently expanded its mortgage division by opening a loan production office in Hoover’s Chase Corporate Center. This new office will house associates responsible for growing retail mortgage production in the Birmingham area, as well as expanding the Jackson, Mississippi-based company’s wholesale/correspondent business throughout Alabama.

“Alabama fits perfectly into our plans to extend Trustmark’s mortgage footprint from the solid customer base we have established during the last twenty years,” said Breck Tyler, Trustmark’s Executive Vice President of Mortgage Lending. “Our familiarity with the Birmingham market, combined with the knowledge and expertise of Steve Shaw, whom we’ve hired as our Regional Production Manager, matches well with our corporate growth strategy. Steve comes to us with years of regional management experience and a successful track record with Trustmark, having been one of our top broker/correspondents as president of Mortgage Professionals, Inc.”

The Birmingham location will be home for Shaw, as well as Birmingham Production Manager Rodney Hart, and several other experienced originators, loan processors and underwriting support professionals. “I am excited to be a part of Trustmark’s plan to grow mortgage production in Alabama,” said Shaw. “Having worked closely with Trustmark for over 15 years, I fully understand and believe in their commitment to outstanding customer service.”
