Stephen Hart

I joined the Scale Up New Anglia team in September 2020 having previously worked in the financial services industry with a global bank. What attracted me to the role was that it gave me the ability to use my skills and experiences from throughout my career in a number of industries.

During my 14 years with Santander, I held a number of positions including Branch Manager, Financial Planner, and most recently 6 years as a Business Relationship Manager, supporting SMEs within Norfolk and Suffolk.

Qualified to FPC level in Financial Planning, I also hold an HNC in Leisure and Tourism Management, and I have also worked in a number of positions within the hospitality sector.

I spend a large part of my spare time volunteering as an Assistant Scout Leader for a local Scout Group. The key aspect of my role within the group is organising and facilitating educational programmes for young people. I also take the lead in fundraising for the group, seeking out grants and sponsorship to support our activities.
