PKF Littlejohn Advisory has appointed industry professional Paul Williams as a new partner to further strengthen the firm’s UK-wide restructuring and insolvency capabilities.
With more than 30 years’ experience across corporate restructuring, recovery and advisory, PKF said Williams has built a reputation as a trusted advisor to a wide range of senior lenders. High-profile assignments range from financial advisory, turnaround and debt restructuring through to enforcement, particularly in relation to property.
His experience also includes buying/selling distressed assets, facilitating loan portfolio sales for senior lenders and private equity firms and he has a proven track record advising the boards of corporates in financial distress. He has similarly advised and supported management teams with pragmatic ways of achieving financial and operational turnarounds.
Williams’ notable recent experience includes the restructuring of an international cruise liner business, the provision of advisory and restructuring services to an international high end fashion company resulting in the refinancing of the incumbent lender, survival of the business and the continued employment of all staff.
He has provided advisory services to an international PR agency to facilitate a turnaround of the business, an extension of banking facilities, and the restructuring of the major shareholder interests.
Williams said “PKF has an excellent reputation advising clients in complex and challenging situations. The firm has a very strong partner led approach and people focussed culture. I am delighted to be joining such a collegiate team. My knowledge and passion will help contribute to the continued growth of not only the advisory team in London but nationally.”
Stephen Goderski, partner at PKF Littlejohn Advisory, added: “Paul’s appointment is both a reflection to how far we have come and our appetite for future growth as we look to continue to expand our range of services not just within London but across the UK.”
