RCK Partners, a tax consultancy specialising in R&D tax credits, has announced the appointment of Lord Philip Hammond as chair of its board.
The former chancellor of the exchequer previously served as a senior adviser and most recently as a non-executive director at the firm.
In his expanded role, Hammond will provide strategic counsel to RCK’s leadership team and support the company’s long-term growth plans. The firm said his appointment underlines its commitment to “excellence, governance and strategic growth”.
Hammond, who held the Treasury brief from 2016 to 2019, said: “Having worked with the leadership team closely over the last few years, I am honoured to become chair of the board at RCK Partners.
“Innovation is at the heart of what makes business great, and I have seen the significant impact RCK is making in helping UK companies thrive while upholding the highest standards of compliance.”
He added: “I look forward to continuing to support the firm as it continues to strengthen its position as a trusted partner to British business.”
James Gibson, chief executive of RCK Partners, said: “We are delighted that Lord Hammond is continuing his journey with RCK Partners. His insight and experience have already been invaluable to us during the time we’ve been working together, and we look forward to his leadership further strengthening our mission as we continue to evolve and grow RCK geographically.”
