Barlow Lyde & Gilbert chief executive Clint Evans has stepped down from his post and is set to leave the firm in the New Year.
Evans, who joined Barlows in 2007 from Henley Management College, will leave the City firm at the end of January, the firm announced today (21 December). His next move is as yet unconfirmed.
Evans, who trained as a chartered accountant, previously worked at Clifford Chance, BDO Stoy Hayward and Deloitte.
The top 40 UK firm has appointed chief operational officer David Jabbari as Evans' successor. Jabbari joined Barlows in October 2008 after a four-year spell as global head of knowledge management at Allen & Overy.
Commenting on Evans' departure, Barlows senior partner Simon Konsta said: "In joining the firm in 2007, Clint responded to our partnership's call for change. Clint pursued a programme of modernisation that has resulted in many critical changes at management, partner and office levels. All of these leave Barlows with a strengthened and more effective operational platform.
"We wish Clint the very best and thank him for his unstinting hard work and for the foundations he has helped to build."
Evans' departure comes six months after former senior partner Richard Dedman announced he was leaving the firm.
Dedman stepped down from his post last spring after nearly three decades as a partner. During his tenure as senior partner, he oversaw a restructuring of the firm's management in 2007 which included the appointment of Evans as chief executive, a move which led to the phasing-out of the managing partner role at the firm.
