The Pathfinders podcast series

Andrew Montlake, founder of Coreco and AMI Chairman (among many others), shares with us his Pathfinder Podcasts.

“The definition of a pathfinder, amongst many, is ‘one that discovers a way especially: one that explores untraversed regions to mark out a new route’. The Pathfinder Podcast is about the journeys we take in business and in our life.”

Join Monty as he presents his listeners with engaging, entertaining and inspirational discussions with his guests.

Pathfinders 5 –  How two very different paths led to the Financial Services Industry.

“Stacy Penn and Rachel Edwards are two of the mortgage industry’s young, shining lights. Working in highly technical and important roles for the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries (AMI), much of what they do is generally not seen or understood by many they represent, though they are part of a new team who are changing this, and much more besides, in an industry ready to embrace change. This episode is proof you never really know someone until you ask the questions and listen to the story.”
