Alan Pemberton, Managing Partner, commenting on the Birmingham promotions, said:
“These five promotions in our Birmingham team are extremely well deserved. We continue to support an enviable range of clients across the Midlands. But, critically, we are able to deploy quickly supporting national and international investors who increasingly look to Birmingham where some of the most exciting city centre redevelopment in Europe is currently underway.
“TFT Birmingham continues to play a critical role in the firm’s overall growth. A personal pleasure for me as TFT’s first Birmingham-based managing partner, is to welcome Chris Gibbons as an Equity Partner. Chris joined TFT six years’ ago and his appointment is clear recognition of the respect his clients have for him and the results that have followed.”
