Portfolio Payroll establishes new C-suite and director team RECRUITMENT COMPANY, Portfolio Group, has welcomed the new financial year with a wave of promotions, creating a new C-suite management team. This is complemented by the promotion of three associate directors into director roles. The Portfolio Group is celebrating its 35th year in business with ambitious expansion plans. The first overseas office is now open in Toronto, Canada, starting with its payroll division, with plans for expansion into further global markets. Danny Done, who founded the business in 2003, will step up from managing director to chief executive officer (CEO). Anthony Macey is being promoted from director to chief operating officer (COO) and Charlotte Turner from director to chief growth officer (CGO). CEO, Danny Done, says: “This is an exciting time for the Portfolio Group. We’ve just had a record year in terms of both total fees and company profit. It’s now time for our management team to take on a more strategic role, helping us grow and expand into new markets. Creating a C-suite is the first step in this process. The newly appointed directors will pick up more of the day-to-day operations management of Portfolio Group with ambitious goals. We’re confident they’re the right people to take Portfolio Group to the next level.” There are also three director appointments, with Gemma Creamer, Patrick Day and Mark Davis all moving up from associate director roles, managing the permanent, executive and temporary / interim division respectively. COO, Anthony Macey, says, “Gemma, Patrick and Mark have played a crucial role in the growth of the business. We’re all delighted to celebrate their well-deserved promotions. Not only is this the right step in establishing a strong core team who know and share our business values and ethics, it also demonstrates a clear platform and pathway for others to grow and develop into management positions in the future.” Charlotte Turner, CGO, adds; “Now is the right time for us to move to a C-suite model, with the launch of The Portfolio Group Canada. We’re building a business with the potential for rapid growth over the coming years. Who knows where we’ll conquer next.” Ceridian launches Dayforce Accelerate in the UK and Ireland CERIDIAN IS a proven partner driving organisational transformation for enterprise customers through a modern approach to human capital management (HCM).
