Rebecca Egerton Appointed Head of The Right Academy at The Right Mortgage

The Right Mortgage and Protection Network has appointed Rebecca Egerton as the new head of The Right Academy. Egerton will be responsible for overseeing, running, and developing the academy’s training and development programme for the network’s non-Competent Adviser Status (CAS) advisers.

The Right Academy provides a structured route for firms to bring new advisers into the profession. It offers induction training, development support, supervision, masterclasses, and ongoing training towards achieving CAS. Since its launch earlier this year, The Right Academy has developed 35 trainee advisers, with a target of appointing 100 trainee advisers by the end of 2026.

Egerton previously served as supervision and development manager at The Right Mortgage, working across the main business and its subsidiary, The Later Life Lending Network. She has been with The Right Mortgage since the end of 2022. In her new role, Egerton will report to Jack Norrey, compliance director at The Right Mortgage and Protection Network.

The appointment is part of The Right Mortgage’s ongoing investment in adviser development. The Right Academy aims to support firms in developing staff and building stronger adviser businesses for the long term.

This development may be of interest to UK letting agents and inventory clerks who work alongside mortgage advisers and rely on well-trained professionals within the property sector.
