Sponsored by Insolvency Today, in partnership with Willis, the Power 100 list “recognises practitioner talent, skill and innovation and commends the industry’s outstanding rescue professionals for creating an environment where entrepreneurial flair can blossom, ensuring jobs are protected even in the event of failures.”

Bennett, who heads up the Group’s London office, was ranked alongside other industry professionals in the areas of practical contribution, influence, industry reputation enhancement, record of industry lobbying, regulatory leadership and peer assessment.

A qualified IP, Bennett has been a partner at the firm for over a decade and has experience dealing with a range of insolvency, recovery and turnaround work. He has particular expertise in the retail and recruitment sector and in October accepted the “2011 Corporate Recovery Firm of the Year” at the Insolvency & Rescue Awards on behalf of the Group.

The award is a credit to the innovative and professional standard of the Group as a whole and we plan to continue providing an exceptional service to our clients in 2012.”
