50 Years working with Peterkins!
What a Guy!
| As reported in the Press and Journal today:- |
| 'An Estate manager at Aberdeen law firm Peterkins Solicitors is celebrating 50 years with the practice. |
| Guy Bentinck passed the half-century mark this week, but the 67 year old has no plans to retire yet, saying "it is always on the horizon, but never seems to come round". |
| He joined Granite City company Davidson and Garden, which later merged with another firm to form Peterkins, as a junior administrative assistant in 1957. |
| Eventually he became estate manager with responsibilities including the factoring of agricultural property and salmon-fishing interests in addition to executry and trust work. |
| Mr Bentick, who hails from Banchory and spent many of his earliest years in Southern Rhodesia - now Zimbabwe - is also a director and former chairman of north-east civil-engineering company Hunter Construction (Aberdeen). |
| Another role outside of his main job has seen him take on the duties of administration for the Trout and Salmon Association of Scotland for more than a decade. |
| In an age when staying with one company for 10 years - never mind 50 - is rare, he has never thought seriously about leaving Peterkins. |
| "I have never really felt the urge to go anywhere else," he told the Press and Journal, adding: "I have met a lot of very nice people who have made it worthwhile."' |
