We are pleased to announce that one of our partners, Ian Salter, has been awarded an OBE in His Majesty The King’s Birthday Honours List 2026, in recognition of his services to the nuclear industry.

Ian is a longstanding partner at the firm and has played a leading role in advising clients across the nuclear sector for many years. His work has supported the development of major projects and contributed to the continued growth and advancement of the industry in the UK and internationally.

The honour reflects Ian’s significant contribution to the sector, as well as the impact of his work during his time at the firm.

“I’m delighted and honoured to have been recognised in this year’s Birthday Honours. My work in the nuclear industry has always been a team effort, and this recognition reflects the support and collaboration of many colleagues at Burges Salmon, as well as others across the wider sector. I’m very grateful to everyone, including those at Burges Salmon, clients and colleagues from the nuclear industry, who I’ve had the privilege of working with over the years.”

Ian Salter, Partner

“This is a significant and well‑deserved honour for Ian. His contribution to the nuclear sector over many years has been considerable, and it is particularly pleasing that this recognition reflects his work at the firm. While this is rightly a personal achievement, it also speaks to the many colleagues Ian has worked with over the years. We are all very proud of him and the role he has played in supporting clients and the wider industry.”

Ross Fairley, Senior Partner
