Cornerstone Network has assigned a head of network relationships and a relationship manager to each of two regions: the North and the South. The network says the reshuffle is intended to give firms clearer regional contacts and more focused support.

Who are the regional contacts?

Region Head of network relationships Relationship manager
North Andrew Needham Nayanaa Prashar
South Graeme Lewis Wayne Donovan

The announcement identifies the North and South assignments but does not define their boundaries or list postcode coverage. It also does not provide individual contact details, so firms should use their existing Cornerstone channels to confirm whom to contact.

What is changing for firms?

The reorganisation establishes a named lead and supporting relationship manager for each region. Cornerstone says this is intended to make points of contact clearer and provide more focused support to firms. The announcement does not report service-level measures or results, so it does not establish that service or adviser growth has already improved.

What is known about the appointments?

Wayne Donovan recently became the South’s relationship manager after previously working as a head office mortgage adviser, according to Mortgage Solutions. The report does not give further appointment histories for the other three contacts.
