Firm promotion: Thorneycroft Solicitors appoints new board member

Thorneycroft Solicitors has announced that Nicola Dickinson, Head of Volume Legal services at the firm, has taken a position on the Thorneycroft Solicitors Board. 

Nicola has been appointed Director of Volume Legal Services and Legal Operations.

The announcement follows a series of recent successes for the firm including the acquisition of Leathems Solicitors in Whaley Bridge in August and the sponsorship of British Superbike rider Christian Iddon in September.

Nicola has been with the firm since December 2015 and in that time she has made a significant impact. She has brought her considerable experience to improve the firms’ systems and procedures across their New Business department, Portal and Litigation teams.

The efficiencies made in these teams and new structures put in place have helped the firm to deliver an improved client service, progress cases and achieve targets set.

As a result of improved performance in these teams, Thorneycroft Solicitors have been able to expand their business to bring on new commercial partners and grow existing relationships.

This has led to the firm setting up their Credit Hire team. That department has now grown to encompass the Credit Hire team and Employers Liability Claims team. As a result of this growth, the department was rebranded as the Volume Legal Services department.

As a board member, Nicola will be able to contribute to improvements across the firm with ideas and efficiencies which have worked successfully in the Volume department to date.
