Walkers' Jersey growth continues with two new hires

Associates Aidan Dobney (Banking & Finance) and Angharad Prescott (Investment Funds & Corporate) have joined the firm, following the arrival of Gemma Palmer as Senior Counsel in the Regulatory & Risk Advisory team last month.

Fraser Hern, the head of Walkers' Channel Islands business, commented: "We are delighted to welcome Aidan and Angharad to the firm. They bring with them a mix of onshore and offshore experience which will add additional strength and depth to our business, as well as expertise which our clients will benefit from. Their arrival, and that of Gemma Palmer last month, continues the growth trend across our Channel Islands business which saw 40 new joiners in 2023. We are confident that both Aidan and Angharad will enjoy being part of a busy and rapidly expanding business, and will help us go from strength to strength."
