KFS Recruitment hires new national headhunter

By Bridging Loan Directory 18th February 2022

KFS Recruitment has announced the appointment of Jan Gallagher as their new headhunter.

Working on a national basis Jan will deal with a variety of vacancies at KFS including BDMs, Underwriters, and National Account Managers.

Jan’s career spans over 30 years within financial services, 10 of which were dedicated to the specialist lending arena.

With a wealth of experience as a national account manager for specialist mortgages and bridging lenders, Jan will bring an edge to KFS recruitment.

She can look at vacancies and really understand them from an insider’s perspective.

Kerry Stephens, Director. KFS Recruitment said:

“I am beyond delighted that Jan has chosen to join us. I’ve known her for over a decade and she has always been one of the friendliest professionals in the specialist lending sector.

I have known Jan as a candidate, a confidant and now as a colleague. I cannot wait to introduce her to our clients.

Whilst it may be a shock to see Jan switching to life as a headhunter, no one will be surprised at the immediate trust she will gain from clients and candidates alike, as she is already a much-loved asset to our lending sector.”

Jan Gallagher added:

“I have known Kerry for many years and historically she has always been my first point of contact when I have been looking for a new role.

I have always admired her knowledge of the industry and her extreme passion for her clients and candidates.

For me, that stands out more than anything when you think of KFS Recruitment.

I see this as a fantastic new challenge to develop myself in the recruitment world but also still work alongside the many business contacts and friends that I have gained in my many years in the specialist lending industry.

Having this experience, I would hope people would feel confident to reach out to me in the knowledge that I would endeavour to meet all of their recruitment needs moving forward.”
