We are pleased to announce 54 promotions across our office network as part of our ongoing growth. The raft of promotions includes one partner promotion and seven progressions within the partnership.
Sam Parton, in our Infrastructure Services Division, has been invited to join the partnership. He joined Fisher German as a graduate in August 2010 and initially assisted with the management of various rural estates before moving across to work in utilities and infrastructure in 2012. He has since worked his way up through the business, and in 2017 took over the role of manager of the Exolum Pipeline System contract, leading a team which completes the land agency and pipeline protection administration for approximately 2,000 km of cross-country oil pipelines.
As part of his role as partner, Sam will also be leading a team involved in the delivery of a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) in the East of England. The promotions have been as part of our career progression framework which gives all employees a clear pathway to advance within the business.
Sam said: “I’m extremely proud to have been invited to join the partnership. I joined Fisher German as a graduate and have always aspired to make it into the Partnership, which is something that the firm has strongly supported. There is a clear pathway for progression in place for those who want to advance in their careers with line managers being extremely supportive, encouraging, and willing to have open and honest conversations with colleagues about what they want to achieve. I have worked with some fantastic clients on some challenging projects over the years and I look forward to the challenges ahead, including a large-scale project in the East of England. It’s an extremely interesting time for the infrastructure sector as we move towards net zero, and I look forward to continuing to support the growth of this area of the business.”
Liberty Stones, Alasdair Dunne, Ben Marshalsay, Paul Brown, Seb Kingsley and Ruth Ofield have all progressed to more senior roles within the Partnership. In addition, Jenny Occleshaw, Rachel Clipsham, Ben Flint, Matthew Davis, Thomas Blake, Emanuel Skelton, John Jones and Martin Blake have all been promoted to Associate Director.
A further 39 promotions have been made across our offices in line with our career progression framework.
Our Senior Partner, Duncan Bedhall, said: “I would like to congratulate all of those within the firm who have received promotions. The high number that has been awarded is recognition of our continued growth and the success of our career progression framework, which gives all colleagues an opportunity to advance in the firm if they aspire to do so. I am confident that this success will continue moving forward as we are awarded an increasing number of contracts by both new and existing clients, and we are looking ahead to some exciting new projects that we have on the horizon.”
