This week, Senior Delivery Manager Lynne Cox celebrates 12 years with Bridgeforce. Lynne brings over 20 years of banking experience to help U.K. and U.S. clients with large-scale change initiatives. She applies focus, efficiency, and faultless delivery to all that she does. Recently, Lynne helped “right the ship” of a client’s back-office fraud operations to acceptable service levels. The client ended up recovering their SLA obligations ahead of schedule. In response, the client said, “I know how much effort has gone into getting to this point. Very well done and a personal thank you from me for everything that you have done over the last 3 months. This is a huge milestone!” Congratulations Lynne, on 12 years at Bridgeforce, and thank you for the hard work and dedication that you pour into everything you do! ?? ??

The Department of Justice (DOJ) and the CFPB require financial institutions to take reasonable steps to verify eligibility for the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) and the application of those benefits to qualifying Servicemembers.
