Head of construction team appointed at Pinsent Masons
Fraser McMillan will take on legal firm, Pinsent Masons’ construction division, which deals with major construction players such as Balfour Beaty, Carillion, Kier Construction and Hochtief.
Although the division has bases throughout the world it’s largely UK-based and McMillan will continue to be base himself in Glasgow whilst spending additional time in London with McMillan continuing with some case-work in advising on disputes around the construction industry.
Mr McMillan said: "The construction team is probably the most dispersed in the firm with a lot of presence in our international offices. That will be a very big part of our business going forward so I'm looking forward to working with the guys and girls out there.
"I think a lot of day-to-day stuff we can do [remotely]. The balance is the personal relations stuff and that still benefits from face-to-face meetings."
David Ryan, managing partner of Pinsent Masons, said: "Our construction practice is a core component of our offering in the infrastructure and energy sectors and I am delighted that Fraser has taken on the role.
"He combines first-class technical skills and sector knowledge with significant management experience.
"Further, Fraser is very-much internationally minded and understands the significance we attach both to global growth and maintaining our dominant position in the UK."
