Specialising in M&A, he has over 15 years’ experience in advising entrepreneurs and private-equity-backed businesses.
Paul Eagland, managing partner at BDO, said: “Appointing Ed and Rory reflects our continued commitment in ensuring our UK and international clients across a range of sectors and regions receive the very best advice during uncertain times.
“They both bring a wealth of experience in advising high-growth, entrepreneurial and private equity-backed companies, and add further weight to our offering in this area.”
