PKF Littlejohn Advisory bolsters restructuring and insolvency capabilities
London and Leeds-based insolvency and restructuring firm, PKF Littlejohn Advisory, has appointed Robert Barker as insolvency manager to support and further bolster the firm’s restructuring and insolvency capabilities.
Robert joins the company with over 15 years’ experience in the sector, working predominantly within boutique insolvency practices, helping to facilitate the restructuring, sale or liquidation of SMEs in need of financial support. Robert will support the company’s insolvency practitioners from appointment through to final resolution.
Robert says that the industry runs in the family: “My father was an insolvency practitioner and introduced me to several IPs which ultimately led to me entering the industry in 2008. I’m delighted to have the opportunity to work with the expert team at PKF, in an environment that will help facilitate my ultimate ambition of becoming an appointment taker.”
James Sleight, partner and head of Leeds at PKF Littlejohn Advisory, says Robert’s industry experience and knowledge will be key: “I’m confident that Robert will be a real asset to the team. His experience in the SME market in particular will prove invaluable in helping us provide them with much needed support in tough economic times.
“His focus on exemplary client service and his passion to see businesses succeed wherever possible shines through in his work and how he communicates – helping clients to understand the complex terminology involved within our line of work and guiding them toward a successful outcome.”
