Fozia Raja, Stenn

Stenn, the financing platform for global SMEs, today announces the appointment of Fozia Raja as chief people and culture officer. Stenn continues to invest in industry talent as it scales rapidly and builds a central team from its new head offices in London.

This new role will support Stenn’s “ambitious” expansion plans, ensuring that a “strong and unified” culture is developed and maintained across all parts of the company as it continues to grow its services and customer base.

Fozia will be responsible for leading the people strategy and will report directly to founder and CEO, Greg Karpovsky. She will spearhead recruitment and employee experience to ensure that Stenn continues to attract and retain the best talent across the business.

Fozia joins Stenn after more than seven years at Sprinklr, the SaaS unified customer experience management platform. As Vice President of Culture & Talent she was instrumental in helping the business scale from a few hundred employees to just under 4,000 when she left, post-IPO.

Fozia is familiar with the fintech space, having spent part of her career at HSBC and FIS. Altogether, she has over 15 years of diverse human resources experience, including in cultural transformations and global recruitment functions. Her track record of driving operational excellence for systems and processes is exemplary.

As part of Stenn’s investment in culture and talent acquisition, Carl Robson has been hired alongside Fozia as Director for People & Culture. Carl brings extensive experience in scaling technology organisations and will support Fozia in building Stenn’s HR capabilities globally.

Fozia Raja added: “Joining Stenn at this pivotal moment in its growth is really exciting; I’m so impressed with what Greg and the team have already achieved here. I was drawn to the fact that Greg is committed to creating a category leading platform for our customers.”

Rob France, tell.money

tell.money, the fintech solution that delivers “innovative and rapidly deployable” open banking services for banks and other account providers, has recruited Rob France, formerly the global VP sales and commercial strategy, leading the European sales operations at Global Processing Services.

Bringing experience in sales across retail, government, telecoms and financial services, having supported both multinationals and scale up ventures, Rob France takes on the commercial responsibilities at tell.money as it grows its client base. The appointment follows those of Stuart Wakefield as COO, and Marcus Raithatha as CFO.

CEO David Monty commented: “Rob brings a strong history of sales in our sector. He brings decades of experience and will add great strength to our business at executive level.

“This is a perfect time for Rob to be joining us as we look to expand our client base into both new fintechs and established banks who are looking for rapid deployable Open Banking solutions. I am delighted to welcome him to the tell.money family.”

Rob added: ““I feel privileged to be joining tell.money at such a pivotal moment of the business’ growth and fortunate having worked with some of the management team in a former life.

“It’s an exciting moment in time given that Open Banking is gaining real momentum and few players can boast a cost effective and proven solution to meet the compliance mandates and ready themselves for known and to be discovered use cases.”
