Partners - Leeds - Geoffrey Martin
Geoffrey joined the profession in 1966 and took his first appointment in 1974 at the age of 27.
After an association with Arthur Andersen through an affiliated practice, a merger subsequently took place in the early 1980's and Geoffrey became Andersen's Head of Corporate Recovery in the North East.
As anyone that knows him will happily testify, Geoffrey's individualistic approach was constrained by the uniformity of a large international practice and led to Geoffrey leaving with virtually the whole of the Andersen's North East Corporate Recovery team to form Geoffrey Martin & Co in 1983.
Geoffrey continues to be an innovative and creative practitioner whose experience leaves him ideally placed to anticipate the consequences of actions, thereby being able to plan effectively. He encourages the other partners and staff to get away from a formulaic or traditional approach to business recovery and the growth of the firm is testimony to the success of his methods.
When not challenging received wisdom, Geoffrey can often be found on the golf course or in the gym.
