We are pleased to announce three new appointments to the firm, as we continue to grow our specialist pensions offering.

Victoria Thompson-Hill joins as a Professional Support Lawyer, bringing 20 years of pensions law experience and particular expertise in legal knowledge management.

Victoria’s expertise covers all aspects of pensions law, with particular experience in GMP equalisation, funding, scheme mergers, wind-ups and liability management. Her appointment expands Arc’s knowledge capabilities as the firm continues to grow.

We also welcome Jonathan Mason as an Associate, who joins as a newly qualified solicitor, and Georgi Ivanov, who joins as a Paralegal, further strengthening the team at all levels.

Victoria, Jonathan and Georgi are the latest appointments in a period of strategic development and strengthening at Arc, including the recent arrival of Association of Pension Lawyers Chair Matthew Swynnerton and the appointment of Kris Weber to the partnership.

Victoria Thompson-Hill commented: “I am delighted to be joining Arc at an exciting time in the firm’s growth. I look forward to bringing my pensions and knowledge management experience to the team and supporting Arc as it continues to develop its specialist offering.”

Managing partner Anna Copestake added: “We are thrilled to welcome Victoria, Jonathan and Georgi. Victoria’s combination of extensive pensions experience and knowledge management expertise will be hugely valuable as we continue to grow. These appointments reflect our continued investment in the firm at every level and our focus on building for the future.”
