Quantuma appoints new MD to West Midlands team

Cross-border advisory firm Quantuma has appointed corporate finance expert, Scott Peters as managing director. Peters will head up Quantuma’s Midlands corporate finance and national debt advisory practices. He will be based from Quantuma’s premises in Birmingham, and will also spend time in the firm’s London office. With a background in banking, Peters’ experience covers all aspects of corporate finance advice and transaction execution services. He joins Quantuma from an independent corporate finance firm based in Birmingham, where he was a director. Prior to this, he held senior roles in Structured Finance with both the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), and consumer bank CYBG PLC. His clients have spanned public companies, private businesses, management, shareholders and investors. Peters’ recent deals include raising the growth funding for Heidi, a tech-enabled ski tour operator; and the sale of Attraction World to a consortium based in the US and Netherlands. His appointment follows Brian Milne’s, who joined the firm as a managing director in the firm’s Glasgow office in May 2024. Peters said: “I am delighted to join Quantuma and to be working with such a strong team, and I welcome the opportunity to play my part in supporting the firm’s ambitious growth plans, and to increase our capabilities in the region. “The funding market has become more complex and there is an increasing need for good quality advice for SMEs, which is still incredibly underserved. Quantuma are well placed to address this need and I am looking forward to working alongside colleagues in Corporate Finance and the West Midlands to deliver for clients both old and new alike.” Ian Barton, managing director and head of Corporate Finance, added: “I am very pleased to welcome Scott to our Corporate Finance business. His arrival adds further senior expertise to our team, as well as adding debt advisory to our developing range of services, enabling us to further support even more entrepreneurs and business owners. Scott is very well regarded, and we are delighted he is joining us at such an exciting time, as we expand our regional presence. Scott’s arrival forms part of our Corporate Finance team regional expansion which will enable us to bring a broader offering to the market. This follows the recent move of director Calvin Bond to establish our Corporate Finance service in Scotland, working with colleagues in both Glasgow and Edinburgh. Our strategy of regionalising our offering enables us to collaborate with colleagues from our sister companies in the K3 Capital group, including K3 Advantage. This will position us to offer a wider range of deal advisory services for clients, including Financial Due Diligence and Data services. Barton concluded: “As market conditions continue to improve, we further expect to grow our regional presence across both our Quantuma and K3 Advantage brands.”
