Barnett Waddingham (BW) has appointed Will Scobie as senior risk and resilience consultant.
Scobie brings leadership experience and deep expertise in organisational resilience, crisis management, supply chain resilience and business strategy. He joins BW following ten years leading Horizonscan, a consultancy specialising in risk and resilience, with experience in organisational resilience, crisis management, supply chain resilience and business strategy.
Scobie will support the firm’s resilience practice and contribute to client projects across risk and digital Resilience and will also be involved in business development for the team.
The appointment follows BW’s acquisition of Risk Evolves, which expanded its services in cyber security, data privacy, environmental, social and governance (ESG), compliance and business continuity planning.
Scobie says: “I’m delighted to be joining BW at such an exciting time for the team. BW’s reputation for client-centric service and practical risk advisory perfectly aligns with my approach to helping organisations build genuine real-world resilience.
“I look forward to collaborating with the team and wider business to expand our capabilities and support clients in navigating an increasingly complex risk landscape.”
Barnett Waddingham partner and head of risk and resilience services Harshil Shah says: “Will’s appointment represents another significant step in strengthening our risk and resilience capabilities.
“His talents directly align with BW’s expanded risk and resilience offering and his extensive management experience and deep expertise will be invaluable as we continue to grow our practice and deliver comprehensive risk solutions for our clients.”
