Aon bolsters UK M&A and Transaction unit with three hires

Broker  Aon has strengthened its M&A and Transaction Solutions team in the UK with the appointment of three executives: a banker, a lawyer and an in-house promotion.

Sam Bridges (pictured left) joins  Aon’s Corporate M&A Coverage team as director with more than 20 years of experience as an investment banking professional at JP Morgan.

Tanya Hickson (pictured centre) moves from  Aon’s Corporate team to  Aon’s Manchester M&A Transaction Advisory Risk and Insurance team, working with Antoinette Swift on diligence and private equity backed portfolio business.

Guy Ruddy (pictured right) joins the Transaction Solutions team, based outside of London, as director, from Squire Patton Boggs in Leeds, having spent more than four years as a corporate M&A lawyer with a private equity focus.

Adrian Lamasz, head of UK Regions at  Aon’s M&A and Transaction Solutions, said: “These appointments reflect  Aon’s continued progress in the region and the increasing client demand for our services. 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.”
