Roland Rawicz-Szczerbo
Founder

When setting up Time4Advice, we wanted to create something special. A business that challenged the legacy back-office providers and offered hope to our clients thar things would get better.

Our relationship with Microsoft and the development of CURO on the Microsoft 365 ecosystem sets us apart and has enabled us to create software that is truly transformative. Our mission is simply to build the best software, aligned with the best support so that we have the happiest clients. To facilitate this, we are building a brilliant team of developers and support professionals, who are committed to serving you as best we can. Our aim is that every touch you have with Time4Advice is positive and enjoyable. If we can do anything to improve, then please let me know.

Mitchell Philpott
Founder & Managing Director

I believe in the importance of technology and its transformational effect on the businesses that embrace it for what it’s great at, which is freeing people to do what we humans do best; giving great advice and nurturing valued client relationships. Technology can’t replace these things and never will but the right technology does many of the things that are time consuming, that distract us from the things that our clients value most and that are, frankly, boring.

Outside of work, my play-time is spent kayaking, cycling, beach walking and broads sailing in Norfolk with my growing-up family, friends and beloved chocolate Labradors.

Product Manager

Richard Brian
Technical Director

I’m the Technical Director for Time4Advice. My role is to drive forward the evolution of CURO and supporting products. I have over 25 years’ experience in financial services and IT and still love the challenge of implementing software and processes in such as complex and diverse industry. I’m very excited with our plans for CURO and the efficiencies this will provide for our users. We have a great team and I feel privileged to be part of it.

When not at work, I enjoy watching football, trying to keep fit and, of course, relaxing with a beer or two (although the latter conflicts with the former).

Lucy Lait
Head of Client Services

My role is to continually review and develop our consulting and support services to ensure our clients get the very best from their investment in CURO. With more than 30 years experience in operational Financial Services, I believe every business is unique and that it’s vital to identify and understand your challenges so we can resolve them together.

Having recently moved to Norfolk, when I’m not working I like to spend time renovating our 230 year old house with my husband, beach walking with our Italian Spinoni dogs, and entertaining friends and family. If they bring a paint brush, all the better!

Jane Cronin

Jayne Cronin
Head of Finance & HR

I work closely with the board to help form and execute strategy and associated business planning. My role is varied and fast paced, which I enjoy. I am at the heart of the business and what I like most about my job is the variety of challenges. My rewards are seeing the team grow with enthusiasm to embrace new technologies and the genuine desire to deliver excellent customer service.

When not at work, I will be found doing anything outdoors and finally I am a Marmite lover!

Matt Smith

Matt Smith
Head of Product Development

I’m responsible for leading our highly skilled Development Team. Coming from a programming background, I’ve got a wealth of experience in delivering Dynamics CRM solutions and Microsoft based services for both small businesses and large enterprises. I enjoy guiding the team to ensure the continuous improvement of the product via the development of new features and delivery of solutions for our customers.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy live music, clay pigeon shooting and anything that involves the great outdoor.
