Mortgage Advice Bureau (Holdings) (LSE:MAB1) announced on Monday that Emilie McCarthy will step down as Group Chief Financial Officer on 30 September, with Jo Stent named as her designate replacement.
Stent, a chartered accountant with more than 25 years of listed-company finance experience, joins MAB, which operates one of the UK's largest mortgage broker networks, on 6 July to begin an overlapping transition period alongside McCarthy.
Her appointment as full Group CFO and executive board director takes effect on 1 October, subject to regulatory approval.
Stent was most recently CFO of AIM-listed deep technology investment company Frontier IP Group, having joined that business in 2024, and previously served as CFO of foreign exchange group Argentex Group, where she was involved in its AIM admission.
Earlier roles span the European Tour, Vodafone and TELUS Communications, with her career starting at Ernst & Young and Deloitte.
Chief Executive Peter Brodnicki said Stent brings "listed company, financial services and capital markets experience, together with a strong track record of supporting businesses through periods of growth and transformation."
McCarthy, who is leaving to pursue other opportunities, said it had been "a privilege to serve as Group Chief Financial Officer during such an important period in MAB's development."
