It’s now time for fresh eyes and energy to drive the next phase of growth. Andy and Mark have been with me for years and I know they have the skills and ambition to realise our objectives.”

Andy Kenyon adds: “It’s a huge honour to be Joint Managing Director at JMS. Under Daniel’s leadership, we have built a hugely reputable consultancy with strong foundations for growth. I’m confident that Mark and I can continue to build on this success. We have an excellent team in place and clear, achievable goals.”
