Firm bolsters the ranks with promotions

Leeds-based firms Shulmans LLP has promoted fours of its members to associates, through its ‘Forward with Shulmans’ career development scheme.

The scheme, which is open to all firm members, has seen Mel Bulmer and Kirsteen McFadzean promoted to associates in the business support team; Nicky Morgan in the plot sales team; and Lindsey Hodges in the firm’s conveyancing division. Nicky, who has spent 25 years with the firm, will also take on the role of head of plot sales, while Kirsteen will become head of business development.

Rosemary Edwards, partner and chair of the Forward with Shulmans panel, said: ‘We are delighted to announce these four promotions, all of which are well deserved. It is particularly pleasing to see the promotion of colleagues from a range of disciplines from across the firm. Each of these candidates has developed their career via a different route and this demonstrates how flexible our FwS scheme can be. All four of them have spent time nurturing and developing colleagues and passing on the knowledge and experience which they themselves have acquired.’
