Liz, who began her career at the Inland Revenue, joined HURST in 2012.

In HURST Corporate Finance, Ben Bradley has become an associate director and Ryan Niblock has been promoted to manager. Both joined the practice as graduate trainees.

Samantha Tingey, Alexandra Pearce and Ryan Tattler have been promoted in HURST’s business services team. Sam becomes an assistant manager and Alex and Ryan become seniors.

In HURST’s payroll division, Lisa Wichlacz has been promoted to assistant team manager and Siouan Oliver to supervisor level.

Tim Potter, chief executive of HURST, said: “We are delighted to announce our latest promotions which reflect the talent of our team.

“Our preference is always to promote from within and we have a strong track record of doing this.

“Five of the eight staff who have been promoted began their careers as trainees at HURST.

“We put a lot of effort into training and developing people into rounded business advisers, and it is fabulous to see them progress with us.”

He said HURST was continuing to recruit externally in response to a growing client base.
