Financial advisory firm HNH Partners, has formally launched its new corporate identity at a stakeholder event to showcase its plans for expansion. 

The firm has recently added to what is now a 28-strong team in Northern Ireland and Scotland. It recently appointed business strategist, Pam Gillies in its Belfast head office and in recent months its Edinburgh office has hired former Deloitte director Roger Mayor and William Lawrence, who joined from KPMG in Denmark.

Wayne Horwood, managing partner and founder of HNH Partners, said: “As we continue to drive our ambitious growth plans across the UK and Ireland, we’re delighted to reaffirm our commitment to offering industry-leading financial advisory services to our growing clientele by adding to an already accomplished, experienced senior team.

HNH Partners provides deal advisory, strategic business planning, transaction services, debt advisory and taxation services. 

The firm enjoyed a record year last year, completing multiple deals ranging from £2 million to £60m across numerous sectors from food and drink to manufacturing.

Neal Allen, partner and head of deal advisory in Scotland, said: “As a unified, strengthened team in both Scotland and Northern Ireland, HNH Partners puts our clients at the forefront of everything we do and we are delighted to unveil a new brand identity which reflects our shared values, our unique client proposition and our purpose.

“In a fast-paced and increasingly challenging business environment, experience matters and HNH Partners is committed to delivering an unrivalled service to new and existing clients in the months and years ahead.”

In recent years, HNH Partners has been responsible for guiding some deals across Northern Ireland and Scotland.
