Stephen Drew, Professional Services Regional Managing Partner at Evelyn Partners in Birmingham commented: “These significant appointments come at the end of a year of expansion for our professional services team in Birmingham, that now exceeds 100 people. Earlier in the year we moved into a new Birmingham office at the city’s landmark 103 Colmore Row and we are continuing to hire experienced people so that we can expand the range of services we are able to offer our clients in the West Midlands. I look forward to working closely with Jayne, Mike and Katie as we continue with our growth strategy in 2023.”
