I am really pleased that Jon will take on the role of representing Band Hatton Button within that community and I have every confidence that he will ensure that the Firm's reputation and relationships continue to grow fruitfully."

Nick is hugely popular with colleagues and clients and he will always be a great ambassador for Band Hatton Button. We are all extremely grateful to Nick for the guidance and leadership he has provided and I am looking forward to playing my part in supporting the whole team to continue to flourish and grow together."

Jon will work closely with Mark Moseley, Managing Director to continue to grow and develop the business.
