Restructuring, problem solving and crisis management
Providing experienced support to businesses through challenging circumstances.
​
As an experienced restructuring professional and with over 15 years experience working with corporate clients of all sizes, I am well equipped to support and offer practical advice in difficult situations for businesses. I am also a qualified insolvency practitioner able to offer insight into crisis circumstances, holding an extensive network which I can quickly tap into to draw on additional support where needed.
​
I can also support insolvency practitioners directly where required, and offer advice to businesses who may be looking to acquire businesses or assets from an insolvency.
