We have expanded our service offering in the East Midlands following the appointment of Harry Walker as a Director in our Corporate Finance team.

Harry joins us from Grant Thornton, where he was an Associate Director, having joined as a graduate in 2009. In 2016 he was named in the 2016 AccountancyAge.com ’35 Under 35′ list.

Harry has worked on deals in sectors including Aerospace and Engineering, Food and Beverage, Packaging and Building Products amongst others.

Commenting on his appointment, Harry said: “I’m delighted to be joining FRP at this exciting time for its developing national Corporate Finance offering and successful wider practice. Having advised upon a range of strategic transactions in the SME space, including business sales, acquisitions and raising equity investment, I see my experience as strongly complementary to the firm’s existing local service offerings.”
