MBO completes at TC Group Leeds
TC Group Leeds (TC Murray Harcourt), is excited to announce the completion of a Management Buyout with the appointment of two new equity partners, Andy Nichols and Neil Potter. The two of them will join with Founding Partner Mark Hunter to drive the business forward in the next chapter of its development.
Andy has over 20 years’ experience in financial services including 10 years in Commercial Banking with HSBC, before joining Murray Harcourt in 2013 with a focus on providing Business Advisory and Audit services to a wide range of SME’s.
Neil has nearly 20 years’ experience in providing audit and accountancy services to a wide range of clients of varying sizes and levels of complexity, ranging from owner managed businesses to international PE-backed groups. He also has extensive experience of working with clients in the not for profit and education sectors.
Mark said: “Having worked with Andy and Neil for several years, I’m delighted that both have stepped forward to join the leadership team. The three of us are already shaping the future of TC Group in Leeds, Yorkshire and nationally.”
Andy said “After working with such a fantastic client base and team for many years, I am delighted to join with Mark and Neil and look forward to leading the business towards further growth, adding value to both existing and new clients.”
Neil added “Having worked in a senior role within the business over the last 10 years, this felt like a natural step and I’m excited to be part of a leadership team focused on delivering a proactive, personal client service and growing the firm to become a flagship office for TC Group in the north”.
The three partners have played an integral role in the firm’s development over the last 10 years and the new appointments are part of a longer-term strategy to grow the wider TC Group service offering in the north of England.
Steve Watts, Chief Operating Officer of TC Group added “One of the benefits of the TC Group model is it makes succession planning possible so we’re delighted that Mark, Andy and Neil have successfully completed this MBO and will now drive the growth strategy in Leeds and Yorkshire.
They collectively have a wealth of experience and knowledge of their local market along with strong connections and we’re excited by what the next phase of TC Group Leeds will achieve”.
