It’s been a busy start to the new financial year for the team as we welcome Peter Taylor as our new financial director and extend our congratulations to our trio of newly-qualified solicitors who have successfully completed their training contracts.

Rachel Joyce and Harry Mills have taken up roles with our Litigation and Commercial Property teams based in Hull, whilst Grace Moreton remains with the Corporate department in the York office. The role of financial director is a new one for Andrew Jackson and these new appointments come at a busy time for the firm, as Mark Pearson-Kendall explains:

“Peter brings the ideal blend of commercial, strategic and client-focused commitment to delivering excellent service. The firm continues to grow, in terms of the breadth and scale of the work we are delivering, as reflected by our requirement for Peter’s expertise.”

We’re also delighted to extend a warm welcome to partner Nick Wilson as a key addition to our busy team. Nick has a wealth of experience to offer our clients, having advised both public and private sector employers on a range of matters including internal procedures, restructure/redundancies, industrial action and TUPE. He has also represented employers as an advocate at Employment Tribunals nationally and at Employment Appeal Tribunals.

Head of employment, Jonathan Dale, said: “Nick brings extensive expertise in employment law and a client-focused approach to the provision of trusted, commercial legal advice, making him an ideal fit for the firm. We are delighted to have him on board and we know that he shares our collective ambition to continue to deliver the best possible service to our clients.”
