In support of our continued growth, we have appointed five new partners as part of our 2024 promotions. These partners will play a vital role in leading BW's expansion across various key markets.


The promotions span a wide range of business areas, including risk, pensions, investment, insurance and employer benefit consulting, and coincide with a further twelve principal promotions and twenty six associate promotions. 

These promotions reflect our unwavering dedication to nurturing and investing in our people, who have all contributed to our success over the past twelve months — a period that has seen our fastest growth in our 35-year history, with revenue climbing 20.7% to £146m last year. This new leadership, overseen by the four new managing partners who are responsible for spearheading our ambitious strategic plans, put us in good stead to hold our market leading position in the future. 

Speaking on the promotions, Senior Partner Andrew Vaughan said: "Our commitment to our people remains at the core of our success. These promotions reflect our dedication to serving our clients and working with them to meet their goals. With these exceptionally talented individuals joining our expanding leadership team, I am confident that we will continue to be able to provide innovative, transformative solutions, and in turn sustain our significant organic growth."

"Our 1,750 professionals are united in their dedication to our distinctive culture, rooted in independence, expertise, and dedication to providing high quality service. We work hard to ensure that our robust training and development programs empower individuals to hone their skills and reach their full potential across a diverse range of disciplines. This, in turn, enables us to elevate home-grown talent, which is an important part of our strategy, and allows us to offer a consistently outstanding service to our ever-expanding client base."
