Grant Thornton UK bolsters FSRI division
Grant Thornton UK has promoted Jarred Erceg and Russell Simpson to the position of partner within its Financial Services Restructuring & Insolvency (FSRI) division.
The firm said that the move aligns with its objective to bolster its senior leadership and broaden its expertise in the financial services arena throughout the country.
Jarred Erceg possesses over 15 years of experience as a qualified insolvency practitioner, having practiced in both Australia and the UK.
In his new role, he will concentrate on expanding the firm's FSRI offerings, overseeing engagements related to restructuring strategies and formal insolvency processes.
Beyond his advisory responsibilities, Erceg will aid in the growth of the national team and foster relationships with clients and stakeholders, the auditing firm said in a statement.
His global experience includes secondments at a prominent Australian bank's workout division and Grant Thornton's Restructuring practice in Hong Kong.
Erceg said: 'It's been an incredible journey with the firm, beginning as a graduate with Grant Thornton Australia, followed by a stint with Grant Thornton Hong Kong, before joining Grant Thornton UK in 2018.
'I'm excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to working with my fellow Partners and team to drive our firm's success and deliver for our clients.'
Meanwhile, Russell Simpson has been associated with the company for 19 years as a licensed insolvency practitioner.
He has managed several notable appointments, including serving as joint administrator and joint special administrator in intricate financial services scenarios.
In his new capacity, he will continue to assist clients within the financial services sector, with a particular emphasis on banks, lenders, and digital assets, as well as liaising with regulators and government entities, the statement read.
Simpson commented: 'I am very excited to announce my promotion to Partner at Grant Thornton UK. After 19 incredible years with this amazing firm, it's hard to put into words how proud I am to reach this milestone in my career.
'I am immensely grateful for the support from my colleagues, family, mentors, and clients who have been with me every step of the way, in particular Chris Laverty, for the opportunities that our specialist Financial Services Restructuring & Insolvency team brings.'
