RG Corporate Finance (RGCF) has announced the promotion of rising star Sam Shield to Corporate Finance Manager.
His promotion follows the recent appointment of Euan Mullholland as Corporate Finance Executive, which takes the Newcastle-based CF boutique to 21 people, making RGCF one of the largest full-service CF advisory firms in the region.
Having joined RGCF just over a year ago, Sam has contributed to a wide range of transactions, providing expert advice and support to clients from the region, across the UK and internationally.

Since joining RGCF he has been involved in several transactions, including the sale of Calibrate to RSK, and MAPD Group’s acquisition of Cumbrian legal practice Thomson Hayton Winkley and its sister business The Rural Law Practice.
Carl Swansbury, Partner and Head of Corporate Finance at RGCF, said: “Sam rapidly integrated himself into the firm and has been a valuable addition to the team.

Sam Shield Corporate Finance Manager at RGCF, said: “RGCF is a very dynamic CF advisory firm and I am really enjoying being part of such a fast paced, focussed and results-orientated team.
