KPMG in Yorkshire invests at the top

KPMG promotes Jonny Marston and Martin Tyley to partner and makes six director appointments across the business in Yorkshire.

Jonny Marston has worked in KPMG’s Northern restructuring practice since 2002, across this region and the North East. He provides restructuring and insolvency advice to businesses experiencing financial stress and distress, or their lenders.

Martin Tyley, who joined KPMG in 1999, heads its information protection offering across the UK regions – one of the firm’s fastest growing areas. He leads a team of 30 cyber security specialists providing services to help clients and their suppliers protect themselves against cyber threat.

The office’s new directors are Clare Partridge in public sector audit, Lawrence Pomeroy in financial services audit, Jon Sharp in pensions, Jonathan Turner in private client advisory, Jonathan Turton in corporate finance infrastructure and Rob Wilson, in financial services management consulting.

Chris Hearld, KPMG’s senior partner in Yorkshire, said: “It’s a pleasure to recognise these great quality advisors with promotions to our top table in Leeds. This investment also represents a boost to our fast growth services, as our business evolves in response to the changing needs of our clients.”

The promotions take effect from 1 October 2013.
