Sort Group celebrates a decade of dedication from key team members

Three members of staff from Derby-based property, legal and financial specialists, Sort Group, are celebrating a decade of service with the company – and their commitment and contribution to the business has been recognised with a special presentation to mark the occasion.

Carolyn Mars, Group Head of HR, and Emma Brown, Group Head of Marketing, celebrated their 10-year anniversaries on 5 January, followed by Roy Mansell, SortRefer Business Development Manager, on 16 February.

These anniversaries make them the first non-founders of Sort Group to achieve this milestone, which is a testament to their dedication and the company’s commitment to nurturing a supportive workplace culture.

All three joined Sort Group during a pivotal period in its history when SortRefer was the company’s sole business focus.

When SortRefer was launched in 2009, the organisation was establishing key departments and laying the groundwork for the rapid expansion that has subsequently transformed Sort Group into a market leader.

Since the launch of SortRefer in 2015, the Group has gone from strength to strength, launching Sort Legal in 2017 and reinforcing its reputation as an innovator in the industry.

In 2024, Sort Legal joined forces with South Shields-based mortgage brokers Hello Mortgage and estate agents, Estatio, to create a new super property hub which is set to revolutionise the home move experience.

A number of other new brands are set to be launched in 2025, including Let’s Recruit, an exciting new recruitment agency with a mission to transform how legal conveyancing professionals are hired across the UK.

Carolyn, Emma, and Roy’s 10-year anniversaries highlight Sort Group’s dedication to fostering long-term careers and celebrating the individuals who contribute to its success.

Commenting on the milestone, Kevin Tunnicliffe, CEO of Sort Group, said:

"Reaching 10 years of service is a remarkable milestone, and it’s even more special when it involves three individuals who have grown alongside the business.

“Carolyn’s leadership in HR, Emma’s vision in marketing, and Roy’s relentless drive in business development have all contributed to Sort Group’s success. We’re fortunate to have them on our team.”

Managing Director Keith Ahmed added:

“The dedication and expertise shown by Carolyn, Emma, and Roy have been instrumental in our growth over the past decade. They joined us at a critical juncture and have played key roles in shaping the company we are today. We’re incredibly proud to celebrate this achievement with them.”

Carolyn Mars reflected on her journey:

“It’s been an incredible experience to grow with Sort Group. I’m grateful to be part of such a dynamic and supportive team.”

Emma Brown added:

“When I joined Sort Group, I knew it was a company with potential. Ten years later, I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together and am excited for the future.”

Roy Mansell concluded:

“Working for SortRefer has been both challenging and rewarding. The opportunities I’ve had here are unmatched, and I’m honoured to reach this milestone.”

SORT Group consists of brands SortRefer, an online portal for Estate Agents and Mortgage Intermediaries, and Sort Legal, the Group’s own CLC Law firm. They also partner with MyInfinity Group Ltd, which includes Hello Mortgage and Estatio.
