Multinational law firm Pinsent Masons has today announced its latest round of partner promotions, with 24 set to join its global partnership on 1 May.
This year’s cohort of newly promoted partners reflects the firm’s geographic footprint, with 18 promotions made across the UK, three in Europe and a further three in Asia Pacific.
These promotions reflect the strategic expansion of the firm’s bench strength across its key sectors and practices. Significantly, five new partners will join the Technology, Science and Industry practice across the UK and Europe, whilst six partners with renewables expertise have been promoted across Asia Pacific and the UK. These promotions will further enhance the cross-border capabilities of the firm’s market-leading advice in the Energy Transition space.
Commenting on this year’s round of partner promotions, Senior Partner Andrew Masraf said: “The depth of talent and breadth of expertise in our newly promoted partner cohort show that we are committed to growing our global reach and technical skillsets. Every year I’m impressed by the commitment and commerciality within our business and these qualities will be essential as we unlock our next chapter of growth.”
“The fact that 54% of our new partners are women is a reflection of our efforts to ensure that any barriers to female progression are mitigated and that the partnership is a viable route for all who want to pursue it.”
