We are delighted to announce that Jonathan James joined us earlier this month as a Business Development Manager.
Jonathan joins the team at a really exciting time for Antony Batty & Company, Thames Valley, now into its 4th year of trading, and he is looking forward to working to promote greater brand awareness through new and existing professional relationships.
A bit about Jonathan
He started his career with a national bank in 1995, fulfilling a range of roles over a 29-year period predominantly in banking relationship management. These varied positions saw him work in Berkshire, Central London and most recently as a Commercial Relationship Director in Oxfordshire and the surrounding counties with responsibility for helping large SME clients achieve their corporate aspirations.
Jonathan says:
“I have known Lawrence King from within the professional community for over ten years and our interactions have always been enjoyable. Where required, my previous portfolio of clients have greatly appreciated the expert advice he and his team were able to provide.
I am therefore really pleased to be joining the Thames Valley team as their Business Development Manager and look forward to promoting the values and capabilities of our business in collaboration with the professional community it is my privilege to be an active member of.”
Lawrence King, Director of Antony Batty & Company Thames Valley and Licensed Insolvency Practitioner said:
“I have known Jonathan for over 10 years from our time in and around the professional community in Oxford, and we are excited to see the results of his ability to leverage his contacts in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and beyond for the benefit of the business. This process has already started, and we know that those contacts who are already aware of his new position with us are very pleased to hear of his appointment.
It was immediately obvious when my fellow director, Matt Waghorn, and I started discussing a potential move with Jonathan that the fit between us was right, something which is at the top of our list when it comes to recruitment. From the word go he has fitted in superbly with the rest of the team, and we are looking forward to the value he will bring to the business.”
Jonathan is looking forward to getting in touch
We all know the value of building strong and mutually beneficial professional relationships, none more so than Jonathan. He will be in touch with you over the coming weeks and months for a chat to see how we can best work together. But do feel free to drop him an email if you need to chat anything through with him sooner.
