Liz Claydon appointed Head of Global Deal Advisory, KPMG International

With more than 30 years’ experience, Liz is currently a partner and Head of Deal Advisory for KPMG in the UK. Liz started her career with KPMG in 1991 in Audit before moving into Transaction Services. During this time, she has advised on some of the world’s largest and most complex deals and has been the global lead partner for clients both in the Life Sciences and Consumer sectors. More recently, she was the sector head for KPMG’s UK Life Sciences practice, having spent the previous five years leading the Consumer & Retail sector, alongside her role as a Deal Advisory partner.

In addition to continuing in her existing role as Head of Deal Advisory with KPMG in the UK, Liz will focus on scaling and evolving KPMG’s global transactions business, continuing to invest in the Global Strategy business with data and technology at the heart of this and building enhanced connectivity across the wider advisory business to help clients across the deal life cycle.

The world is in a period of turbulence and deep uncertainty so now – more than ever – businesses are re-assessing and re-evaluating their business models and growth strategy. I’m proud of how KPMG firms’ Deal Advisory specialists around the world work alongside clients and trusted advisors, helping them to make key decisions that reinforce their resilience with an eye to long-term future growth. I’m incredibly proud to take on a global leadership role within the Deal Advisory space. We may be living through challenging times, but I firmly believe KPMG has some of the brightest and best in the business and that’s backed up by our significant investments in new technology and tools to truly unlock our capabilities and help clients tap into the right opportunities and right time.
