Shropshire's largest law firm, Lanyon Bowdler is delighted to welcome a new face to the team, whilst saying goodbye to a much valued and respected member of existing staff. Lynne Hinton joined the firm in August 2010 as Human Resources Manager following the recent retirement of her predecessor, Barbara Holdcroft.  

Previously employed by HBOS for 21 years, Lynne had during that time been a HR Consultant, and more recently a HR Business Partner providing strategic HR support across several businesses.  She was a member of the senior management team and delivered in-depth HR consultancy and expertise.  

Lynne takes over the reins from Barbara Holdcroft who, having joined Lanyon Bowdler in August 2001, successfully guided the firm through a period of expansion and change. Barbara was also instrumental in the firm becoming an accredited Investor in People and, in 2009, her efforts in respect of the firm's training and development were rewarded when Lanyon Bowdler received theTraining Award  in the Midlands Business Awards.  

Speaking about her new role, Lynne said "I am looking forward to returning to a generalist HR role where I can fully utilise my range of HR skills".
