Aon’s M&A (mergers and acquisitions) and transaction solutions team in the UK has welcomed the arrival of three executives.
Sam Bridges (pictured above) brings more than two decades of investment banking experience from J.P. Morgan, joining the corporate M&A coverage line-up at Aon in his capacity as director.
Meanwhile internal hire Tanya Hickson (pictured immediately above) made the switch from the company’s corporate team to the M&A transaction advisory risk and insurance unit in Manchester.
Also, corporate M&A lawyer Guy Ruddy (pictured below) moved from Leeds-based Squire Patton Boggs to become part of Aon’s transaction solutions roster outside of London. He will serve as director.
“These appointments reflect Aon’s continued progress in the region and the increasing client demand for our services,” commented Adrian Lamasz, head of UK regions, M&A and transaction solutions. “In 2021, the team worked on more than 100 M&A situations in the UK, and we are well-positioned for further growth.
“The arrival in the team of Sam, Tanya, and Guy reflects our ability to attract leading industry talent, and I wish them well in their new roles.”
