The firm has made two new hires to respond to rising demand and plans a further two appointments by the end of the year, growing its team by 25 per cent.
Samantha Donaghy’s appointment enhances the depth of the firm’s finance sector expertise as she previously worked for global investment firm Martin Currie. Jill Davidson joins after three years with Edinburgh Rugby, where she managed its commercial partnerships.
