The new associates are Katherine East, Laura Willis, Kathryn Salt, Jade Elliott-Archer, Lucy Macklin, Ryan Blake, Richard Sweetman and Stuart McDonald.
Across the firm nationally there have been 13 new partners, 28 senior associates and 56 associates. Overall the promotions represent the overall gender split at Irwin Mitchell with 65% of those promoted being female.
Andrew Tucker, Group Chief Executive at Irwin Mitchell, said: “To announce these new partners, senior associates and associates makes me extremely proud and it is another clear sign of the continued emphasis we place on investing and developing in our people.
“These latest promotions show our strength and breadth across the group whilst also recognising the significant contribution our colleagues make to our business in terms of supporting our clients and creating the right culture for future success.”
In addition to the 13 new partners, Irwin Mitchell recruited 17 new partners during 2021/22 financial year across teams including commercial, public law and human rights, will disputes, real estate and employment law.
Last year Irwin Mitchell reorganised into a Client Services Team and a Commercial Growth Team putting clients’ needs at the heart of its business.
The two teams work closely together with one focusing on bringing in new clients and meeting more needs for existing clients, while the other focuses on ensuring the clients, whether business or personal, receive an excellent level of service that meets their evolving needs.
Irwin Mitchell also recently announced two new offices in Cardiff and Liverpool and has continued with its Flexible by Choice ways of hybrid working empowering colleagues to make their own decisions about where and when they will work subject to client requirements.
