Consultant CNP has grown turnover by 40% in the past year and has announced a string of new appointments. Group turnover is on track to exceed £7.5m by the end of the 2006 financial year, an increase of over 40% in the past 12 months. The firm, which has headquarters in Esher and four other offices in Leeds, London, Glasgow and Manchester, plans to double turnover by 2010.
