Springboard announces raft of promotions and recruitment

Springboard Partner Simon Ward commented “I am absolutely delighted to announce these promotions across our team.  It is a real pleasure to welcome James and Rob to the partnership – both have contributed massively to the development of the firm.  Jonathan, Matthew and Tom have earned richly deserved promotions for the quality of work they do for our clients every day.  For Pauline and Daniel it has been great to see their careers develop. We welcome James Cross to the firm and are delighted he has chosen to join us.  We have seen high levels of activity across all areas of our business over recent months.  For founders there remains strong interest from acquirers both in the UK and overseas whilst our private equity clients remain keen to grow via acquisition and new investments. Our recent support to longstanding client Sykes Holiday Cottages on its acquisition of Forest Holidays represents another landmark deal for us. These promotions are a demonstration of our continued optimism about the future and our commitment to providing great client service across our business.”
