BTG enhances senior leadership team with partner promotions

BTG has announced two key promotions to partner, enhancing its leadership strength in the advisory and restructuring market.

Adam Humphrey and Scott Day have been promoted to partner within the advisory and restructuring leadership teams, respectively. The new partners add more than three decades of combined experience, 16 of which have been spent at BTG.

Adam has been with BTG since starting as a trainee in 2013, gaining his qualification as a chartered accountant in 2019. Having started his career at BTG’s Leeds office, Adam relocated to the London Canary Wharf office in 2020 and will continue to drive BTG’s advisory business, including support for asset-based lenders. 

Specialising in special situations mergers and acquisitions, Adam has recently completed complex deals across a range of sectors, safeguarding hundreds of jobs, and ensuring the continuity of operations for these businesses. His clients reach across a number of sectors including construction, care, leisure, retail, and hospitality. Adam also delivers advice on a range of corporate finance related projects including financial and commercial due diligence, and debt and equity fundraising initiatives. 

Scott has been with BTG for three years, and having joined as a director he will now, as partner, spearhead the creditor services team in London collaborating with BTG offices across the UK. Adding more than 20 years of experience to the senior team, Scott works closely with banks, alternative lenders, lawyers, accountants, and financial advisers.

As Partner, Scott will continue to ensure that BTG creditor services builds on its reputation for minimising the fallout from private client, SME and large company insolvency cases, and bankruptcies across all sectors through the services BTG provides.

These two key promotions to partner arrive at the same time as BTG announces more than 100 promotions across its group. These promotions span all service line offerings, demonstrating BTG’s investment in developing talent at all levels.

Mark Fry, Group CEO of BTG, said:

“BTG is continuing to grow its offering to clients and these latest promotions demonstrate that we have a commitment to promoting from within as well as externally. I have seen the great work that Adam, Scott, and all those that have earned promotions across BTG have been doing for clients in the past few years and I am sure their new roles will allow them to expand on that work. These are important additions to the senior team and their insight will be valuable to the next steps that BTG takes.”

David Abbott, Managing Partner and Head of Advisory at BTG, said:

“These promotions are the culmination of years of hard work and are well deserved. Seeing Adam’s rise from trainee to partner level has been fantastic, and Scott’s progress from director also demonstrates the opportunities to everyone at BTG across all of our service lines. We are always looking to give our people the opportunity to grow and this demonstrates to our teams that there is a pathway to partner.”

Kirstie Provan, Managing Partner at BTG, said:

“Scott and Adam have worked hard and supported many clients through challenging and difficult times. Scott is a key part of the restructuring team and the advice he delivers is always constructive and pragmatic and it has not only helped the clients they work with, but also the companies associated with their businesses. Both Scott and Adam have an important role to play going forward for BTG, the clients we serve, and the wider economy. I am very excited to welcome them to the partner group and am looking forward to working with them in their new roles.”
