SA1 based Peter Lynn and Partners are delighted to appoint ex Welsh rugby international Stuart Davies as their new Business Development Consultant.

Stuart, who played over 250 games at No. 8 for Swansea as well as earning 17 caps for Wales, joins the firm through his own company, Stuart Davies Consulting Limited.

Senior Partner Peter Lynn commented, “We are delighted to welcome onboard someone of the calibre of Stuart to spearhead our business development operation and help grow the firm.”

With a background in a variety of senior positions, having previously worked as Executive Director of Development and Property Services at Gwalia, Chief Executive at Dragons Rugby and Business Development Director at Morganstone; Stuart joins the firm at an exciting time as they are braced for geographical expansion.

“I’ve known Peter for many years, and the firm has an excellent reputation,” said Stuart, “and when he explained the dynamic vision he has for the business, it was something I wanted to be part of.”

With a remit for developing new clients as well as building on existing relationships, Stuart brings a wealth of contacts from his time as both a sportsman as well as in a business capacity.

“Stuart is exceptionally well networked, particularly within Wales, and is highly recognised for his work as a rugby pundit,” said Peter, “and as a firm, we look forward to his input.”

With over 50 lawyers and 35 support staff, the firm is one of the largest in the region covering all aspects of law and recently celebrated 20 years in business.

“We may be one of the youngest law firms in the area,” continued Peter, “but we have grown to become one of the biggest and the growth plans we have in place for the next five years will see a geographical expansion east and west, and Stuart will play a key role in that development.”

Stuart will be based out of the head office in SA1 and will work closely with Peter and the other partners in the business.
