Recruitment Finance appoints Stuart Talbot
The recruitment finance division has recently been searching for a leading authority and expert in the recruitment market to head up the division. Stuart will report into the division’s previous head, Mario Mazzocchi, in his wider role as divisional director at Lloyds TSB Commercial Finance.
Stuart has been promoted internally from his previous role as senior client relationship manager in the recruitment finance division. Stuart has worked helping recruitment businesses at Lloyds TSB Commercial Finance for the last 12 years, and especially closely for the past 3 years, being instrumental in building up the recruitment division as head of the team’s client managers.
Mario Mazzocchi, head of specialist operations and sectors at Lloyds TSB Commercial Finance, said: “Stuart has been involved from the very start of the recruitment finance division being responsible for helping drive its success by building long term relationships with recruiters. It’s brilliant that we’re able to utilise this experience and now, as head, he’ll continue helping recruiters while leading the division from strength to strength.”
Stuart commented: “I’m really thrilled to be the division’s new head, formalising what I’ve been doing this year. It’s such an important time for so many recruiters as they either look to grow their businesses or seek funding advice to cope with the unsettled economic climate, when they need their funder to be more than a simple commodity. We have an ethos to understand the many hurdles that recruiters face, to try to be more of a partner, and I’m really looking forward to continuing to work closely with the market as well as with the internal teams to ensure that this is maintained. It’s a great industry to be involved with and I know that we can further develop the recruitment finance brand and to build its position.”
