A growing Corporate Finance Team for Yorkshire

Building on the bringing together of its Yorkshire based teams into Leeds, Armstrong Watson’s Yorkshire Corporate Finance Team continues to develop and grow following a sustained period of increased activity.

This success is based on the team working closely with owner managed and family business clients which facilitates a high level of advisory input into those clients’ development plans, whether that is on a short, medium or long term basis. 

This partnership approach has seen Armstrong Watson involved at the very early stages of a company’s strategic development. This can be well ahead of any discussions on a future sale or acquisition whilst the team is also experienced and well positioned to act on any other transaction based event.

Chris Wright is promoted to Corporate Finance Director and Stephanie Kealey joins the team as Corporate Finance Executive.

Phil Bailey, Corporate Finance Partner comments:

“It’s with great pleasure that we’re able to announce the promotion of Chris to Corporate Finance Director and the appointment of Stephanie to the team. Chris’ promotion and Stephanie’s appointment strengthens our offering to provide high quality innovative, commercial and strategic advice to growing corporates and owner managed businesses.”

Chris Wright, Corporate Finance Director comments:

“Stephanie’s appointment, coupled with my promotion, demonstrates how the team continues to develop on the back of a sustained period of growth. Developing strong working relationships and a real understanding of the owner’s aspirations and objectives underpins our offering. With this and the breadth of experience within the team we are well placed to continue on this successful path.”
