Company Announcement: Paul McCloskey to step down as Managing Director

After over 25 years leading Stopford, founder and Managing Director Paul McCloskey will be stepping down from his role on April 16th.

Since founding Stopford, Paul has been a driving force behind its success, helping establish the company as the market leader in software for the registration service. His leadership and vision have contributed significantly to the company’s growth, including working with over 100 local authorities and pioneering solutions for complex challenges.

Paul’s dedication to innovation played a pivotal role in the company’s ability to deliver exceptional software and support during key moments, such as the COVID-19 pandemic response. However, Stopford’s commitment to innovation and its ability to stay ahead of market trends will continue under the leadership of Scott Graham, who will be stepping in as Chief Executive.

While Paul and his wife, Emma McCloskey, who has also been integral to Stopford’s success, are transitioning out of their roles to take time off and travel, they remain grateful for the opportunity to have worked with such incredible clients and partners over the years.

As a part of the broader Brightmoat Technologies family, Stopford’s senior management team will continue to lead day-to-day operations, ensuring a seamless transition for clients and partners. We are confident that Stopford will continue to innovate and deliver exceptional solutions in the years ahead.

Paul’s next big challenge will be running the London Marathon in support of Versus Arthritis. If you’d like to support his fundraising efforts, please visit:

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to both Paul and Emma for their dedication and leadership over the years and wish them the very best in the future.
