He applies his excellent communication, critical analysis, financial modelling and negotiation skills each day to deliver high quality interested parties and well-negotiated offers for his clients.

charity 

Personally, James has raised money numerous times for charity through various physical challenges including: a 10k run at Heaton Park for Cancer Research UK, the Greater Manchester run for The Christie, the National Three Peaks Challenge for The Christie, the Great North Run for Cancer Research UK, and the Tour de Manc for Hematology & Transplant Support, Forever Manchester and The Booth Centre. 

SUCCESS

James has enjoyed many successes during his career, completing over 70 transactions including the acquisition of Thompson Contracts (UK)  to Sigma Group (backed by Three Hills Capital Partners), one of Benchmark International UK’s biggest deals. Other signature transactions include the sale of Knowles Fleet, Benchmark’s first sale to an employee ownership trust. This has led to James being recognised with awards in the industry, including Young Accountant of the Year at the Young Professionals Awards. 

diligente

ambicioso

James se mostró tranquilo y seguro al orientarnos y, en ocasiones, frenar mi entusiasmo por pedir cifras inalcanzables. La comunicación verbal fue muy buena y me sentí satisfecho con el asesoramiento que recibimos en varias ocasiones, especialmente de James. Su experiencia en otros acuerdos nos ayudó a determinar cuál era la mejor manera de proceder. *

Un experto de primera clase, James Robinson de Benchmark, me ayudó a llegar a un acuerdo exitoso. Él se hizo cargo de mi frustración con la debida diligencia, pero su atención a los detalles fue impecable y mi experiencia fue, sin duda, excepcional. Esta fue mi primera venta y "mi bebé" quedó cómodamente en manos atentas. James se ocupó del comprador, de mi equipo legal, de los contadores, de mi equipo y de mí mismo con cariño y seguridad, lo que me permitió comprender las complejidades del acuerdo, lo que me ayudó a tomar mejores decisiones a lo largo del proceso. *
