Cole: standing down as chairman as part of shake-upMorgan Cole’s head of client services, Bleddyn Rees, has been tipped as the frontrunner in the race to become the firm’s next chairman as part of a major overhaul of the firm’s management.

Under the shake-up, current chairman John Cole, who is not seeking re-election, will stand down at the beginning of April once the partners have voted in a new leader next month.
