“I am privileged to be working with all our outstanding people as we support clients around the world on their greatest business challenges and further build on our reputation and success.
“I look forward to continuing to work with all our colleagues and our leadership team to deliver our strategy and achieve our ambitions.”

“The reappointment of Justin shows the strength of the firm, our confidence in our strategy and the strategic momentum we have achieved, and I personally look forward to continuing to work closely with him.”
