Begbies Traynor appoints new Partner

Insolvency and restructuring firm, Begbies Traynor, has bolstered its senior team in Bristol with the appointment of a new Partner.

Dan James rejoins the firm he left in 2018, following the recent acquisition of CVR Global, where he will be responsible for further expanding Begbies Traynor’s range of advisory services to financially distressed businesses and individuals across the South West.

James arrives with more than 20 years of insolvency and restructuring experience at some of the UK’s top 20 accountancy firms (including eleven years as an insolvency manager at Begbies Traynor in Bath), in which time he worked on a number of insolvency cases in a variety of sectors, including multi-million-pound fraud investigations.

Julie Palmer,  Regional Managing Partner at Begbies Traynor, said “Dan has unrivalled contacts and knowledge of the business community across the South West and we’re delighted to see him return to Begbies. The next few months are going to be pivotal for UK plc – particularly in the hospitality, leisure and retail sectors, where businesses are fighting for survival and are in need of sound professional advice – and Dan will play a key role in advising clients across these areas and beyond.”
