Ultimately, our decision came down to the ability to attract top talent to meet our growing business needs,” said Sheila Monroe, chief operating officer, TrueAccord. “The expansion and our new team members will help to further the TrueAccord mission to modernize and improve the debt recovery marketplace.”
