Martin Vasey and Ian Goldsack of Robinwood said: “The advice and insight provided by the team at Beever and Struthers was invaluable as they supported us throughout all stages of the transition process.”

The Beever and Struthers’ team led by corporate finance director Dean Curtis advised on the refinance, with support from corporate finance manager Patrick Wilson.
