Charlotte Rees-John speaks about how promoting from within is driving the firm’s growth and supporting clients.
Published on 19 March, 2026
At Markel Law, investing in people is central to delivering exceptional client service. Charlotte Rees-John, Managing Partner, highlights how six internal promotions, spanning leadership, senior associates, and junior roles, are helping build a stronger platform for strategic growth.
These appointments reflect more than career progression: they retain expertise, foster continuity for clients, and support a culture of collaboration and ambition. Aaron Marshall has been promoted to the senior leadership team as Head of Civil Litigation, while Fran Snape, Jess Daniel, and Danielle Fox step up to Senior Associate roles, while Jack Poole becomes an Associate Solicitor and Frank Sowerby Thomas a Paralegal, reinforcing capability across key practice areas.
Charlotte explains that promoting from within ensures clients continue to benefit from advisers who understand their business and needs, while also nurturing the next generation of legal talent. By combining internal progression with ongoing investment in technology and processes, Markel Law strengthens both its team and the practical, client-focused solutions it delivers across the UK and beyond.
