“Building long-standing relationships with both colleagues and clients is what I enjoy most about my role. I have a broad portfolio of clients who vary in both size and industry sector and I enjoy the variety that this brings. I am able to work closely with clients out on site at their premises which helps to get an understanding of their business, its people and culture, putting me in a better position to help them achieve their business aims and objectives.”

2011 – Qualified and joined big four firm

“Working at Milsted Langdon has allowed me to make a real difference to my clients, which was a major factor as to why I chose to join Milsted Langdon. The firm is known as a ‘client first’ practice and I wanted to contribute to my clients and be part of their journey. Whilst I was at a Big Four my clients were mainly large multi-nationals, so I didn’t feel as though I was offering any more than compliance to their business. My client base now is predominately SMEs and start-ups, which has allowed me to build strong relationships with them and can contribute towards achieving their goals.”

Rachel Hotham

2001 – Promoted to Insolvency Administrator
2005 – Promoted to Assistant Manager
2007 – Promoted to Manager
2011 – Promoted to Senior Manager
2012 – Gained Insolvency Licence
2014 – Converted to an Appointment Taking Licence
2015 – Promoted to Partner
“Throughout my career, Milsted Langdon has been very supportive and flexible, allowing me to progress my career. Since joining in 1997, my role and hours have changed to allow me to balance both work and childcare. In addition to this, whilst commencing my employment in the Taunton office, I then moved to the Bristol office and now spend time in all five of the offices. Being exposed to different case work from early on in my career allowed me to gain practical experience, which helped me progress from a part time cashier to Insolvency Partner.”

Robert Rawle
General Practice Partner
“Helping clients realise their objectives is my favourite part of my role. What my clients are aiming to achieve can differ greatly, but knowing I helped contribute to their success is a great reward.
Part of my role is to help graduate trainees develop. For me, an essential part of this is to recognise that we are all humans, meaning we may make mistakes. It is important to support trainees though their training, helping them recognise how they can best improve their skills, learn from experience and develop their career. I encourage them to take on challenges but offer support along the way.”
