Evolve Corporate Finance recruits new talent to drive growth
Evolve Corporate Finance, headquartered in Birmingham City Centre, has more than doubled the size of its team in the last 12 months to meet increasing demand.
The corporate finance specialists were established in 2022 by leading dealmakers, David Neate and Justin Sparks. In the last 12 months, the firm has expanded its team of corporate finance specialists, increasing its headcount to a team of 11 including the appointments of Jonathan Wright (partner), and most recently, Tom Hammond (director) and Georgie Arthur (executive).
Since its launch, Evolve has advised on high-profile deals including Metpro’s £21.5million investment from BGF and NatWest, the sale of a majority stake in Amco to South African-based Super Group, the sale of Built-ID to LandTech, and Opus Safety Group’s acquisition of Agility Risk & Compliance Limited, RSP SafetyServices, and Three Spires Safety Limited.
David Neate, partner and co-founder commented: “We launched Evolve to create a national corporate finance business that focuses on advising the owner-managed market across the UK – a part of the market which we see as being underserved. We are delighted about the progress we have made in a short space of time and the wide range of deals we have completed.”
Justin Sparks, partner and co-founder added: “Recruiting new talent in the corporate finance and advisory markets is incredibly competitive. We are excited that we have been able to attract high-quality people to the Evolve team. The individuals who have joined the firm will help us to continue to deliver exceptional outcomes for clients looking to sell, buy, or raise finance.”
