Suzanne Burrell has joined the law firm Shoosmiths as a partner and pensions specialist.

Moving over from Mayer Brown International, where she was most recently a senior associate, Burrell brings with her experience advising trustees and sponsoring employers of occupational pension schemes.

While advising companies on pensions matters, such as the issues resulting from public sector outsourcing and corporate deals, Burrell said she is “looking forward to building on the established position Shoosmiths has on pensions and growing the pensions team in the Reading office”.
