Carter Jonas has expanded its operations in Nottingham, appointing Andrew Prowse as a Partner in its Infrastructure team. 

Carter Jonas opened in Nottingham last year, marking its second site in the region, having launched in Birmingham in 2016. Its Nottingham space at Cumberland House, 35 Park Row, is initially supporting the ongoing expansion of its Infrastructure and Energy business - which has grown exponentially over the last ten years, having secured several client mandates to assist in the delivery of a number of flagship schemes across the UK. 

Andrew joins from Bruton Knowles with more than 15 years of experience. He has a background in commercial property, specialising in compulsory purchase and compensation in the infrastructures sector. He has advised on land assembly for infrastructure and regeneration projects across the UK, working for many national operators, including National Grid, Western Power Distribution, Northern Powergrid, Severn Trent Water and Cadent Gas.

At Carter Jonas, Andrew will work closely with Christian Green, head of its Midlands practice, helping to lead the eight-strong Nottingham team and grow the business’ regional presence. With a deep-rooted knowledge of the region, and extensive experience advising public and private sector clients, he will play a pivotal role in several client projects. 

Christian Green, Partner, Carter Jonas, said: “It is a pleasure to welcome Andrew to the team. As we respond to client demand, his joining will support our long-term ambitions to develop core areas of our business whilst strengthening our ability to deliver strategic, considered advice and services, helping to facilitate some of the most ambitious national infrastructure projects. I look forward to working with Andrew and drawing on his knowledge and expertise as we grow our business here, supported by colleagues from across our network, to develop our consultancy offering and establish a versatile base in the city.”

Andrew Prowse, Partner, Carter Jonas, said: “I’m excited to have joined Carter Jonas’ talented team and look forward to strengthening our consultancy business here in Nottingham. Having opened in the city last year, my appointment demonstrates Carter Jonas' commitment to increasing the firm’s presence in the East Midlands and providing tailored, expert advice to our clients here. 

“My areas of specialism complement that of the existing team and will support several mandates on which we are already appointed. Equally, my appointment is a great opportunity to use my regional knowledge to help establish further Carter Jonas in the East Midlands as we continue to invest in this exciting and dynamic region.”
