ABOUT CLARE MORTIMER
I’m a Recruitment/Talent Acquisition Lead at AJ Bell, a FTSE 250 investment platform and asset management business, where I lead recruitment and partner with senior stakeholders to support the organisation’s growth and leadership capability.With over 18 years’ experience across agency and in-house recruitment, I specialise in hiring within regulated financial services environments. My role combines recruitment leadership with executive hiring, supporting appointments across finance, risk, investment and commercial functions.Alongside managing the recruitment team supporting Customer Service and Operations, I work closely with directors and executive stakeholders, providing market insight, salary benchmarking and talent intelligence to support informed hiring decisions.Working in a regulated environment means recruitment often intersects with governance and organisational planning. I support processes such as Remuneration Committee papers for certified roles and help build proactive pipelines for critical leadership appointments.More broadly, I’m passionate about building strong recruitment functions, improving hiring processes and developing teams that deliver both great hiring outcomes and a positive candidate experience.AJ Bell is one of the UK’s fastest-growing investment platform businesses, serving over customers and managing billions in client assets.
