Quantuma appoints Managing Director

Cross-border advisory firm Quantuma has announced it has appointed Chartered Accountant and Restructuring Advisory professional Alistair Dickson as Managing Director in its Glasgow office.

Dickson joins Quantuma from a regional accounting firm where he was a Director and Head of Scotland. He has over 30 years of professional experience in the Restructuring sector and has held several senior positions, both in industry and in practice. He previously held senior roles at mid-tier and boutique professional services firms in Scotland. Prior to this he spent 12 years at National Australia Bank, where he headed up the UK restructuring, distressed lending and leveraged credit teams.

Dickson’s extensive experience includes sanctioning leveraged debt and working with businesses with financial concerns. He is therefore well placed to support businesses which are exhibiting early signs of distress, using his wide experience to assist in finding a solution.

Quantuma Chief Executive Officer, Carl Jackson, said: “As we look to accelerate our growth story, having just surpassed our tenth anniversary and following recent investment from the European arm of Sun Capital Partners, Inc., I am delighted to welcome Alistair to the firm, who joins us to further enhance our Restructuring Advisory capabilities.

“We have built a highly regarded multi-disciplinary team in the UK, and I am delighted that Alistair has chosen to join us. I look forward the contribution he will make in developing and growing our Glasgow-based Restructuring Advisory practice.”
