We’re pleased to announce the appointment of Corporate Partner Michael Bennett (pictured right) as the Chair of Hill Dickinson’s LLP Board for the next four years.
In line with our governance requirements, and after eight years as Chair, senior corporate practitioner Jonathan Brown (pictured left) will step down from the role as the firm continues to invest in its future growth and development. Jonathan is continuing with the firm in his capacity as an active member of our Corporate team.
Michael is a longstanding member of the firm’s London office, previously leading our Corporate team in the City for several years. Having become a Partner in the firm in 2016, he has served on the LLP Board since 2022. He will be supported by Partner and Head of our London office Kiran Bhogal (pictured centre), who assumed the newly created role of Deputy Chair earlier this year.
Craig Scott, CEO at Hill Dickinson, said: "Michael’s appointment as Chair represents an exciting next chapter for Hill Dickinson. His leadership, alongside the experience of the wider Board, will provide continuity of vision and purpose as we continue to build together on our success in recent years."
I would also like to personally thank Jonathan for his outstanding leadership and dedication in his service to our Board as Chair over the past eight years. Under his stewardship, the Board has ensured our firm has significantly enhanced its standing within the legal sector, while delivering a period of sustained profitable growth that has positioned us well for the future.Craig Scott
