Stonebridge chief executive Rob Clifford said: “It’s a real positive to be able to expand our leadership team with the appointment of John to lead income growth. This exciting new appointment gives us additional senior management capacity and provides both the network and our member firms with a highly-experienced individual who brings a wealth of insight and knowledge, as well as a proven track record of driving commercial success.”
John Scrivens added: “My aim is to ensure all our members make the most of those opportunities, to provide them with a wealth of information and insight into what is available to them, and what it can mean to their businesses to access these products and services. Stonebridge is a market-leader and one which I know has significant ambitions for the future – I’m aiming to play a full part in helping deliver for all stakeholders.”
