Imtiaz Illahi is leading the company as our new Director and our new Group CEO, effective from 1 October 2022.
Imtiaz is excited to join us and introduce his corporate background to the organisation. As an investor, Imtiaz will bring his extensive experience to help expand our customer base even further.
Imtiaz said:
“I was always a firm believer in the power of employee engagement in the workplace. I have followed the successful journey and development of Growth Partners and its innovative business model for a few years.
Growth Partners offer fantastic services in payroll, pensions and employee engagement for businesses, which is unrivalled. I believe there is great opportunity for extensive innovation and business growth, and I am excited to lead this talented team of experts in this area.”
Imtiaz takes over the ownership from previous Group CEO Paul Bresnihan who, after establishing the company five years ago, has decided to focus on his mergers and acquisitions interests.
Paul said:
“I established Growth Partners to help SMEs access the same tools that help larger businesses prosper. I am proud to have helped unburden so many companies, both locally and across the UK, from payroll and pensions compliance while helping to improve their employee wellbeing offering.”
The news comes as we work to help employers retain talent and prepare a new training support package to help larger businesses make the most of the apprenticeship levy.
