Who they are
Insight
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Bethany Cole is the Hartside champion for Growth and its main user. She shapes decisions but will not buy without James Whitworth. She questioned value in May 2026; usage has since grown, though she is still the key voice.
Role: Head of University Partnerships in Nottingham and the CRM champion. She has been on calls since the 28 Nov 2025 discovery, has a platform user account created 10 Apr 2026 with admin rights, and raised most of the tickets.
Influence: She drives the use case, partner reviews, but said she will not proceed without James, the CFO, who signs. She asked 566 of 4588 questions over the last 12 months (12%) and 403 of 3832 over the last 90 days (11%).
Watch: On 7 May 2026 she questioned paying £45k a year for two regular users from forty licences. By 10 Aug 2026 usage had nearly tripled. Two freshness incidents (21 Jul 2026 and 28 Aug 2026) hit her partner calls. Renewal is 10 Apr 2027.
