Cowgills appoints new partner to debt advisory team
Ben Day joined Cowgills in 2017 as funding director, with previous roles held at MarketInvoice and Aldermore
North West accountancy and business advisory firm Cowgills has announced that it has promoted Ben Day to partner in its debt advisory team, taking the firm’s partner number to 24.
Day joined Cowgills in 2017 as funding director, with previous roles held at MarketInvoice and Aldermore. Since his arrival he has completed over £150m in funds raised.
The debt advisory team works with private businesses and financial sponsors to advise companies on the most suitable debt products for their business.
Paul Stringer, managing partner, said: “Ben’s promotion is a fantastic testament to his skills and achievements as well as Cowgills commitment to growing our debt advisory service across the North West.
“Our deal advisory division has enjoyed tremendous growth in the last three years providing the full range of services including debt advisory, transactional services, strategic support and corporate finance.”
He continued: “The division, led by Ian Johnson and Sam Davies, continues to win work from both boutique and the ‘Big 4’ accountancy firms and Ben’s appointment will further strengthen our position in the marketplace.”
Regarding his appointment, Day said: “There is a significant requirement in the market for debt advisory advice. Entrepreneurial companies are looking for new ways to grow and innovate and we can certainly help them navigate the increasingly complex debt markets to ensure they have the insight and support to achieve their business goals.
“To be promoted to partner at Cowgills is a real honour. Its entrepreneurial focus is what attracted me to the business six years ago. The focus on career progression and promotion opportunities from within are second to none and I look forward to growing the team over the next few years.”
