We are delighted to announce that Matt Cook has been elected to become the firm’s next Managing Partner with effect from 1st June.
Matt has been with the firm since 2000 when he joined as a trainee in the audit and accounts team. Since then, Matt has held several high-profile positions in the firm including IT partner since 2015 and more recently, Finance partner since 2022.
“It’s such an exciting time to be in the profession and I am honoured to be leading the firm in this next stage of our development. Focusing on long term goals has always been key to our success, so I am aware of the responsibility of guiding a 90 year-old business on the next steps, building on the strong foundations that have been set by others before me”.
“Despite the significant changes our market is facing with AI advancements and investment from Private Equity firms changing the shape of many players, Goodman Jones remains committed to being an independent firm. We will continue to prioritise a service that is truly valued by our clients. To achieve this, we invest significantly in our people, allowing them to flourish and contribute their own energy and ideas for the benefit of everyone we work with.”
Matt will continue to work with his client base while holding this role.
As we welcome Matt, we also say thank you to Julian Flitter who steps down at the end of his term in the role. Under his leadership, the firm accomplished several notable achievements. These triumphs include the introduction of new EDI policies such as flexible working and the celebration of cultural events. The firm also picked up the London Mayor’s Business Climate Challenge award in recognition of work done on sustainability.
Julian also oversaw the recent move to our new Fitzrovia office which supports both inclusivity and sustainability with a flexible working environment, as well as having a BREEAM Excellent rating for its top-tier energy efficiency and minimal environmental impact.
The firm is well positioned, and we look forward to the future.
