Who they are
Insight
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026James Whitworth is Hartside's CFO and the signing authority on the Growth deal. He checks paper closely, asks for cost points early and watches value against forty seats. He asked 11% of questions over the last 12 months.
Role: Chief Financial Officer and CRM economic buyer at Hartside Student Living. He holds the signature, and Bethany Cole said she never buys without him. His platform user was created on 11 Apr 2026, with no admin rights.
Influence: He decides terms. He wanted the implementation fee split from the subscription, quarterly payment and explicit user and connector limits, and said Hartside pays on the terms it signed.
Watch: At the 11 Sep 2026 QBR he asked whether around seven users on forty seats was a cost concern. He wants cost points before renewal, so a value case is needed ahead of 10 Apr 2027. The renewal date differs between records: one thread says 9 Apr 2027.
