In Business Risk Services, London-based Emma Young and Ben Langford have been promoted to partner.
Both have worked at the practice for close to 20 years and concentrate on risk management and integrated assurance, supporting organisations as they address operational and strategic uncertainty.
Together, the seven new partners broaden Grant Thornton UK’s Advisory coverage across areas such as economic development, economic analysis, public services change programmes and data-led decision support.
The moves sit within the company’s wider objective of building out its Advisory offering, which includes a stated intention to add 160 partners over the next two years.
Grant Thornton UK Core Advisory head Will McWilliams said: “These new partners truly represent the best of Grant Thornton, ambitious, thoughtful and deeply committed to delivering for our clients.
“Their promotion comes at a time when demand for high-quality, commercially focused advisory support continues to grow.”
Last month, Grant Thornton UK appointed Abigail Fisher as its first chief people officer.
