I am delighted that David, Sonia and Elliot have chosen to join Jaywing. David is renowned in the industry for his modelling expertise and is a really good asset to join our already exceptional team. All three represent great analytical talent and join us at a time when our Risk Practice is expanding under the leadership of Ben O’Brien.
