“The team has recently experienced rapid growth with new higher education client appointments and wider client instructions. This growth has been bolstered by our appointment to the London Universities Purchasing Consortium (LUPC) framework and the recruitment of specialist Higher Education Corporate Partner, Rachel Soundy, Procurement and Subsidy Control Partner, Bethan Lloyd and Construction Legal Director, Niamh Batterton.”
