High-profile turnaround specialist joins RSM

Tyrone Courtman

Accountancy firm RSM has made its third high-profile hire of the year after appointing Tyrone Courtman as partner in its restructuring team.

Courtman is one of the most-respected turnaround professionals in the East Midlands. He is ICAEW’s regional lead and a senior member of the Turnaround Management Association and will be based out of RSM’s Leicester and Nottingham offices, working across the East Midlands.

He joins from Duff & Phelps and adds to the RSM’s two new corporate tax partner hires in the region, Simon Browning and Michael McLaughlin.

With more than 30 years’ experience, Courtman specialises in business rescue and performance improvement, turnaround without recourse to formal insolvency procedures, business refinance, debt advisory and accelerated mergers and acquisitions. His sector experience spans manufacturing, real estate and construction, transport and logistics, professional services, healthcare, and retail.

Courtman said: “I’m delighted to join RSM. The obvious strengths of the business both at a regional and national level are what attracted me. It is also encouraging to see the firm’s confidence and commitment to growth during this uncertain period. I look forward to working with my new colleagues and clients.”

Adrian Allen, partner at RSM in Nottingham, said: “We’re delighted to bring Tyrone on board. His appointment will assist us in growing our Midlands and national restructuring advisory business. Tyrone’s strong profile and extensive experience working with the business community and considerable knowledge of multiple sectors will enhance our restructuring business proposition considerably.”

Kevin Harris, office managing partner for RSM in Leicester, said: “I’m thrilled to see Tyrone join the firm. I know his experience and reputation will benefit a lot of what we are trying to do for our clients here in the East Midlands. This is also a tremendously challenging time for businesses across the region, and I’m confident that Tyrone will play a massive role in supporting RSM’s clients through the ongoing crisis and beyond.”
