24 September 2024

Target Group, a leading provider of business process servicing and digital transformation, has strengthened its team with two senior appointments.

Newport-based Target has appointed Rob Milloy to the role of growth director, while Uday Bola joins as head of solution design. Combined, the pair bring more than four decades of experience to the business.

Rob’s background spans across insurance, energy, mobile and telecoms, starting his career with BT in 1996. Following an 18-year tenure working with some of BT’s biggest clients in the UK and internationally, Rob joined Vodafone to drive new business into Vodafone’s biggest American-based clients. He would later move into the energy sector with Drax Group as its sales and sales and service director, before joining Staysure Group as operations director.

In his new role, Rob will utilise his experience across multiple industries to drive growth and transformation into the Target brand, while working with internal teams to highlight Target’s broad range of services to prospective clients.

Uday is well known within the mortgage market and wider financial services, having held several senior roles in product management, development and design with established brands such as Co-operative Bank, Together, Mutual Vision and Sopra Banking Software. Throughout his career, Uday has built a proven track record of developing and delivering solutions that help achieve customer growth.

Working closely with Rob and the growth team, Uday will build close relationships with clients and utilise Target’s full capabilities to develop solutions and outsourced services that meet and exceed their goals. Alongside its wider proposition, Uday will work closely on Target’s lending proposition including their latest innovation, Mortgage Hub, a state-of-the-art platform for mortgage and loan originations.

Rob Milloy said: “Target has a strong reputation for business outsourcing, software and managed services. This exciting role presents a new challenge and a great opportunity to put my experience to good use and build on this success. I’m looking forward to working with the entire team at Target and with both existing and prospective clients to demonstrate our full capabilities and powerful innovations to help transform how businesses operate. I’m incredibly passionate about customer experience and the value we will bring to deliver that customer experience.”

Uday Bola said: “Target is well established with a real presence in the market and clear ambitions to grow. They also have a fantastic proposition and I look forward to adding my skills to develop this further - showcasing what Target can offer to the UK mortgage market, financial services and sectors further afield. My hope is we can continue to build on the synergy between sales and solutions to deliver what customers need, all while leveraging the expertise of the wider Tech Mahindra family to benefit our customers.”

Peter O’Connor, CEO of Target Group, added: “This is another exciting step forward for Target as we welcome two hugely experienced experts in their respective fields. Not only will they enhance our talented team, but they will bring greater collaboration and strengthen what is a valuable proposition for ambitious businesses to outsource effectively. As more clients seize the opportunities presented by business process outsourcing and digital transformation, it becomes even more important that we have the right people, skills and technology to deliver that competitive advantage.”
