Written by Jeremy Duncombe | Apr 23, 2020 9:30:00 AM



 

In episode 36 of the Growth Series podcast, Nadine Edwards, Corporate Account Manager at Accord Mortgages, is joined by Jane Benjamin, Director of Mortgages for Sesame Bankhall Group, the UK’s largest distributor of retail financial advice. This is the first episode in a special series exploring the ‘new normal’ for intermediaries and looking at how we are adapting to a changing world. Together they discuss how SBG and intermediaries are responding to Covid-19.

The current circumstances have caused major changes in all areas of life and the housing sector is especially affected. Although business as usual today will look different to what we were experiencing six weeks ago, there is still much that can be done to help both clients and business growth. From increased communication to embracing learning opportunities, Jane shares her best tips for making the most of this situation.

Jane takes us through the changes that have been happening throughout SBG, as well as in her own ways of working. She also shares her advice for intermediaries at this time.
