RG Corporate Finance (RGCF) has announced the promotion of Connor McBride to Corporate Finance Senior Manager.
Connor, a graduate of Northumbria University where he gained a BA (Hons) degree in Business Management, joined RGCF in 2019 as a Corporate Finance Manager.
Before joining RGCF, he qualified as a Chartered Accountant with global advisory firm PwC. During his time there, he worked with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) providing outsourced finance services and strategic advice.
This experience sparked an interest in working alongside owner-managers to help them realise their goals and ambitions for their businesses.
He has proved to be an invaluable member of the RGCF team, demonstrating his skills and expertise by advising on a significant number of transactions including HW Global’s acquisition of cloud and digital recruitment specialist Osmii, the sale of SAS to Lifco, the sale of Fostr to IDHL and the management buy-out of Nigel Wright Group.
Carl Swansbury, Partner and Head of Corporate Finance at RGCF, said: “Connor’s promotion is well-deserved and recognises his achievements and progression since he joined the firm three years ago.
“Connor’s promotion to Senior Manager demonstrates how committed we are to rewarding employees by recognising their talent and accomplishments and of our ambition to provide clear career progression paths.”
Connor said: “Everyone at RGCF has been hugely supportive in helping me to develop my career during three years of advising on a portfolio of complex and varied M&A transactions.
“I’m proud to be part of a dynamic, fast-paced CF business, which has an excellent reputation in the North East and further afield and is one of the most active M&A advisory firms in the region.”
