FRP Corporate Finance has expanded into Leeds, marking its eleventh office in the UK and further solidifying its strategic push into regional markets. The move follows recent acquisitions in Cardiff and Newcastle, signalling the firm’s focus on building a nationwide footprint across key economic hubs.
Operating under the wider FRP Advisory umbrella, FRP Corporate Finance advises on approximately 100 transactions annually. The new Leeds base strengthens the firm’s reach in Yorkshire, where it already manages a significant number of deals. The corporate finance function will co-locate with FRP Advisory’s existing restructuring and forensic services office in the city.
Dan Sheahan, formerly of Investec, has been appointed partner to lead the Leeds office. With over two decades of experience in M&A and fundraising, particularly in the automotive and mobility sectors, he brings deep expertise to support the firm’s growth plans in the region.
The expansion takes FRP Corporate Finance’s footprint to eleven cities, including Birmingham, Brighton, Bristol, Cambridge, London, Manchester, Norwich, and Reading. The move underlines FRP’s ambition to provide on-the-ground advisory services to clients across the UK’s most active dealmaking regions.
