Dow Schofield Watts appoints transaction partner

Dow Schofield Watts has revealed it has promoted Ros Jones to partner in its transaction services team in the North West.

It is the third promotion for the financial due diligence specialist, who joined the firm in 2015 as a manager and has risen through the ranks.

Jones specialises in advising on bolt-on acquisitions and has particular experience in the telecoms and legal sectors. She also takes a lead role delivering due diligence for two of the firm’s listed corporate clients, NWF plc and Assura plc.

In her new role as partner, Jones will be working alongside the two existing partners, Ed Brentnall and Catriona Lang, as they continue to grow the business.

Ed Brentnall said: “Cat and I are delighted to announce this well-deserved promotion. Ros has become an integral part of our team and a trusted due diligence advisor to some of our key clients. The quality of our service has always been our differentiator, and the example Ros sets to the rest of the team ensures this will continue to be the case.

“Ros’s promotion is a great example of the DSW model – attracting talented and ambitious individuals, helping them build their experience and progress their career.”
