Remarking on her promotion, Breadon said, "I’m thrilled to have been appointed as senior partner for the East Midlands, a region rich in automotive, manufacturing, retail and consumer sectors and home to many of the region’s thriving private and listed businesses.  I am particularly proud of the work we are doing with our clients during such a challenging time, which continues to have a significant impact on businesses and the economy. We are working hard to support the public sector and our clients by helping them to prepare, respond effectively and change to new ways of working in this evolving landscape."
