The team has already established a strong reputation for delivering creative, bespoke solutions for complex and high-value requirements, but what really stood out to me was the ambition to push those standards even further. I’m looking forward to contributing to the next phase of Glenhawk’s journey and helping extend our hands-on, commercial approach to more brokers and clients nationwide.”
