“I look forward to understanding the needs of our clients and prospects during this difficult time, and helping to provide solutions wherever possible. I have already been impressed with the attitude, knowledge and expertise of my new colleagues and look forward to working more closely with them.”

Ben Bailey, chief executive Scotland and Northern Ireland, added: “In spite of the current business pressures, I am very conscious that many of our clients are grappling with the current pandemic and so it is important that we continue investing in high-quality people who can provide even more support during this uncertain period.”
