Business turnaround specialist Tim Sloggett has joined financial and professional services firm Smith & Williamson as a partner in its Bristol-based restructuring and recovery services (RRS) team.
Tim, pictured, has arrived from ‘big four’ accountancy firm KPMG, where he worked as a director for just over three years with clients on turnarounds, refinancing, accelerated business sales and formal restructuring processes. 
Prior to that he spent five years as a corporate business support director with Barclays, working with a wide range of underperforming businesses providing advice and funding to support their turnaround strategies. He has also worked with accountancy group Deloitte.
As a result, he has experience working with local owner-managed businesses through to large corporate global listed corporates, across a wide range of sectors.
Being born and bred in Bristol and passionate about the region, he will now focus his efforts on supporting local businesses in his new role at Smith & Williamson.
His appointment follows the recent announcement of 16 promotions at Smith & Williamson in Bristol, including three new directors and seven associate directors. He will work alongside fellow Bristol-based RRS partner Gil Lemon.
Smith & Williamson Bristol office managing partner, professional services, Nigel Hardy said: “Tim is a superb addition to our team in Bristol. His track record in delivering solutions for businesses both as a banker and advisor will be invaluable in supporting businesses in the region as they navigate through these challenging times.
“As the trusted adviser for privately-owned, entrepreneurial businesses and high net worth individuals in Bristol and the West of England, we are in the process of widening the scope of our advisory services and investing in growth, as well as promoting internally and appointing externally.”
