Carpmaels & Ransford is pleased to announce the promotion of Jonathon Woodward to Senior Associate, effective from 1st July 2022.

Jonny works across the Engineering, Tech and Chemistry teams and has particular expertise in medical devices such as surgical staplers and electro-catheters, as well as novel materials including fibre-reinforced polymers.

John Brunner, Head of Engineering and Tech at Carpmaels & Ransford, comments:

“Congratulations to Jonny who has been key to the development of our team in recent years. His promotion is a testament to the commitment we have in supporting our top talent, and to the depth of knowledge and experience which we continue to grow in the Engineering and Tech fields at Carpmaels & Ransford.”
