Paul joins Finance Yorkshire board in non-exec capacity

Finance Yorkshire has appointed experienced corporate lawyer Paul Trudgill to its board as a non-exec Director to replace Jennie Adams, who served on the Finance Yorkshire board for 15 years.

Paul is a partner in the corporate group in the Sheffield office of Knights. He advises owner-managed business and SME clients in all aspects of company law including mergers and acquisitions, disposals, management buyouts and increasingly employee ownership trust transactions.

He said: “I have been a member of the South Yorkshire professional and business community for more than 30 years and therefore have an informed perspective to bring in terms of Finance Yorkshire’s external environment including in relation to its target market.

“I have considerable experience of transactions involving venture capital (VC) funds, advising investee companies and acting for VC funds in relation to their investments.”

Finance Yorkshire chief exec Alex McWhirter said: “We are delighted to welcome Paul to the Finance Yorkshire board where he will complement our other non-executive directors with his breadth of corporate legal knowledge and expertise. The board acknowledges the time Jennie gave to Finance Yorkshire over many years in which her contribution to our discussions and decision-making was invaluable.”
