Ex-Landwell equity partner settles on Beachcrofts

Former Landwell equity partner Nigel Frudd has joined Beachcroft Wansbroughs.

Frudd, whose c.v. includes stints as legal and strategy director at Rothschild’s European group and group legal director at Scottish Amicable, spent around a year at Landwell. He joins Beachcrofts as its first ever head of financial services.

Frudd, who was a lateral hire into Landwell’s equity partnership last summer, left the accountancy-tied firm this July. He joined Landwell UK from financial services organisation Nascent Group at a time when the firm had just three equity partners.

Of these, one, former managing partner Chris Arnheim, has left the firm. Landwell now has four equity partners.
