International law firm CMS has named five new partners in Scotland, as part of a 60-strong global round of promotions.
Bruce Harvie and Kate Darracott from the Corporate team, Kirsty Nurse in the Finance team and Will Anderson of the Litigation & Arbitration practice are all recognised in CMS's Edinburgh office. They are joined by Rosalind Morgan from the Aberdeen Environment, Health & Safety team.
The firm’s largest-ever global promotions round takes in appointments spanning 33 cities across Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa, with women accounting for 43% of those promoted.
CMS said it had implemented a number of pioneering measures to support the progression and inclusion of its people, including a dynamic hybrid working environment, top-quality mentoring programmes and a technology-led work allocation system.
Allan Wernham, Managing Director (Scotland) of CMS, commented: "We’re delighted to announce these new partner promotions which recognise the talent, commitment and hard work of our five Scotland-based colleagues. These promotions are part of CMS’s wider commitment to developing its people and driving further growth for the firm in Scotland."
