RSM UK announces 13 new partners to drive organic growth

Leading audit, tax and consulting firm RSM UK has announced 13 new partners across its UK network of offices. The promotions reinforce the firm’s commitment to invest in its people to drive growth from within its own ranks.

The national tax practice led the way, with a total of five partner promotions, including corporate tax experts Duncan Beckwith and Constantine Costas and VAT specialists Tom Gilbert and David McDonnell in the firm’s London team, as well as employer solutions expert Julie Moore in Manchester.

Within RSM’s consulting service line, the risk advisory team saw three promotions – David Broughton in Bristol, James Roberts in Birmingham, and Shingo Soga in London. In addition, Sam Dalziel (Manchester) and Phil Robinson (London) became corporate finance partners in the transactions team, while Gordon Thomson (London) became restructuring advisory partner.

The audit division also saw two promotions, including Leeds based Finlay Lamont and Milton Keynes based David Olsson. In addition to these 13 internal partner promotions, RSM has made 11 external partner hires over the last year.

Rob Donaldson, CEO at RSM UK said: ‘We’re delighted to be able to celebrate these 13 partner promotions and support them as they embark on the next chapter in their careers here at RSM. While this demonstrates our focus on growing our own talent, our 11 external partner hires over the course of the year compliments and strengthens our offering to clients. Building on our ability to attract the very best talent from outside the firm will continue to form a key part of our overarching growth programme.

‘Each of our new partners bring a range of skills, knowledge and experience that will undoubtedly bolster our ability to support our middle market clients in navigating future opportunities in the UK and internationally. This firm has ambitious plans; and I look forward to working with our new cohort of partners to help shape our future.’
