Leslie Wolfson strengthens commercial team
Glasgow-based law firm Leslie Wolfson has appointed commercial property specialist Andrew McCowan a partner, following his return to the firm after a number of years working overseas as a coaching and language consultant.
Donna Strong, meanwhile, joins the firm as an associate from Pinsent Masons. Ms Strong has worked for 12 years in the commercial property industry and brings a wealth of legal experience in all aspects of commercial real estate with particular emphasis on investment work, commercial leasing and portfolio management.
Senior Partner Howard Beach said: “I am delighted that Andrew returned to us after his travels. Nothing better illustrates the fruits of our long-term policy of nurturing home-grown talent and I am very pleased to assume him, once again, as a partner in the firm.
“As we start the New Year, which promises to be very active, both Andrew and Donna will be significant assets to our clients and will further strengthen the firm’s services in our core area of commercial real estate work.”
Two consultants appointed to Brightwork
Scottish recruitment firm the Brightwork Group has strengthened its team with the appointment of senior consultants Alan Kenny and Alan Marshall.
The new recruits are both based in the firm’s new Glasgow office and the appointments bring the headcount of the business to 69, up seventeen from 12 months previously.
Mr Kenny is a principal consultant covering the white collar property and construction sectors and has thirteen years’ experience in the recruitment industry.
Mr Marshall, a graduate of Glasgow Caledonian University, has eight years’ experience in recruitment and has joined the team responsible for the mechanical and technical engineering sector at Brightwork.
Derek May, Brightwork Group Chief Executive, said: "We are really pleased to have hired two consultants with such distinguished pedigrees in their specialist sectors. The additions reinforce our position as a leader in the Scottish recruitment industry."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
