We have come to realise that with the way that we operate as a business now, that no longer works. It has been traditional in the sense of our office space, static desks and desk phones. We have had a very traditional office environment. In terms of ways of working, can you describe how we work and why we work certain ways? Watch this space on that one, there will be evolution. This is not specific to TFA, it is much wider in terms of the global economy rather than being confined to within the business. We are going to start some training with our leaders to equip them with the skills required to succeed in the landscape that we work in, that is a rapidly changing one. The traditional management techniques are great for a BAU style environment, however, we are not operating in BAU style environment. We are working towards a much more rapid response in every aspect of business from the internal processes to our guest’s experience. It’s now just the execution piece in terms of the digitalisation and the different ways of working. They understand our history and strategy. Our leaders are well equipped in the sense that they understand the business so deeply. Another draw was the brand and the amazing transformation that will happen within the organisation within the next 2 years.įrom your perspective, how would you describe the management at TFA?

I had never previously worked in Automotive Finance but I have a background within Financial Services companies. The change, challenge and for a different environment. Why did you decide to accept a role at TFA? Lauren is the Talent Acquisition Business Partner for Retail Finance and Insurance, Corporate Services, Corporate Affairs and Risk Management.
