“Some of our restructuring has been heavily covered, but the plan is not just about restructuring – it is about improving what we do and improving our delivery to clients,” says BLM managing partner Vivienne Williams of what has arguably not been the easiest first year in the job.
Williams, who took over the role last summer, did not come into the position in normal circumstances. Former managing partner Gary Allison had departed just eight months into a three-year term as head of the firm after 23 years with BLM, while the firm also carried out a number of redundancy consultations during 2017.
