Jefferson Wells has a new MD, and he has stuck his neck out in a volatile economic environment by predicting strong growth for Jefferson Wells from the start under his leadership.

Andrew Duncan is the man who has been tasked with ensuring that the 45% compound growth since 2006, and the 50% year on year growth for the first quarter of 2008 is maintained. The figures suggest that Jefferson Wells has perhaps got enough momentum to allow an easy transition period.

Duncan moves over from IBM where he was a global Executive Partner. He says that his move to Jefferson Wells has opened up exciting challenges.

Andrew Duncan takes over responsibility for the UK office from Mike Nelson, who previously carried out the role alongside his duties as Vice President Operations for Europe. Nelson has newly accepted a global role at Jefferson Wells, based out of London.

Following the success of the UK business model, which was the first office outside the United States in 2004, Jefferson Wells has grown its network across Europe. At present, the company has offices in Netherlands (Amsterdam), Germany (Frankfurt), France (Paris) and Italy (Milan).
