Alan Harris has taken on the role of managing partner of Montagu Evans.
Harris, who is the partnership’s tenth managing partner since it was founded in 1921, replaces Rob Bower who retired from the role and the partnership on 31 March 2025 following a decade in post.
Formerly head of Montagu Evans’ advisory department, with a background in development consultancy, Harris has also led the partnership’s town centre and public sector groups since joining the firm in 2001 and has held a seat on the executive committee since 2014.
Harris said: “We are entering a new phase of growth, backed by considerable investment from our Partners and renewed focus on areas where we can support clients’ ambitions most effectively. Montagu Evans remains very proud to be a consultancy-led LLP: small enough for clients to quickly get to the right advice but with scale in our planning, advisory and transactional specialisms to provide extra resource and expertise to unlock complex opportunities for both the public and private sectors UK-wide.
“We’re continuing to invest in our outstanding people, welcoming new talent, promoting from within and expanding our expertise, while continuing to think and act long-term. Major, multi-service instructions continue and we are excited by the opportunities ahead.”
