This weeks Yorkshire appointments

Jade Georgiou, Navigation Wealth Management

Yorkshire-based Navigation Wealth Management has appointed a new financial adviser.

Having previously worked as a personal banker at Santander, Jade Georgiou joined Navigation Wealth as a trainee adviser three years ago, working through all office roles including the client experience team, adviser support and paraplanning, whilst working towards her qualification.

Earlier this year, she passed her final exam and is now a CII Diploma qualified financial and mortgage adviser

Matt Hammond, Chief Executive at Navigation Wealth, which has offices in Beverley and Wakefield, said, “we couldn’t be happier for Jade. When she initially came to us, we immediately saw that she had all the drive she needed and just wanted the opportunity to prove herself and to show everyone what she could do.

“She has worked so hard studying to pass her exams while, at the same time, learning all about the world of financial advice systems and processes. She has learned every role in the business to the very highest of standards and we are incredibly proud of her. She has been, and will continue to be, a fantastic asset to the company and for our clients.”

Thanos Klonis and Paul Mundy, CTS UK

CTS UK, the flourishing North Yorkshire-based business supply chain specialists, have strengthened their talented team with two senior appointments. CTS UK is a market leader in personalised uniforms, workwear, promotional products, personal protective equipment (PPE) and cleaning and hygiene products.

Thanos is the company’s new Group IT Systems Manager, while Paul joins as the Group Consolidation Specialist.

Howard Gill, CTS UK’s Managing Director, commented: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome Thanos and Paul to the company. These are two very significant appointments, which will help to build on the substantial progress we have made during the past two years.

He added “The journey of CTS is a long-term project, which demands the fullest commitment from all our staff. Thanos and Paul, with their experience and expertise, are perfect for their challenging and pivotal roles.”

Thanos Klonis, who has previously worked for the Billingham-based NYMAS Group and Barrett Steel, explained, “this is a very exciting opportunity and challenge for me. The speed of growth of CTS UK means that an integrated IT system is crucially important, both internally and externally.”

Paul Mundy, who joins CTS from the Leicester-based Merton Group, said, “this is an absolutely dream job for me. I live in Tadcaster, so working for a company in the Midlands has been a logistical challenge.”
