Stonebridge Group has embarked upon a new strategic partnership with SFS Recruitment (SFS).

The new partnership formalises the relationship between the mortgage and insurance network and SFS, allowing the two organisations to work more closely together to place appropriate AR firms within the network and to develop placement opportunities for advisers looking to move practices.

SFS is a specialist firm in matching AR firms to networks and offer a full fact finding, profiling, and support service.

Since it began working in this area, SFS has successfully placed a number of AR firms with Stonebridge and the two organisations have now pledged to work closer together in order to develop the ongoing arrangement and to ensure more firms are aware of the opportunities Stonebridge has to offer.

Richard Adams , managing director of Stonebridge Group, said: “We have been particularly pleased with the work of SFS Recruitment and have got to know Phil and his team well over the course of the last few months. They operate to the highest standards in terms of AR firm and adviser support
