Investment Director Promotion for Key Leeds Team
Matt Tice, who joined Key in early 2018, has been promoted to Investment Director.
Based at Key’s head office in Leeds, Matt has been working alongside partners Owen Trotter and James Hall to source investment opportunities in profitable, dynamic SMEs across the UK as well as assisting with the development of existing portfolio businesses.
Prior to joining the firm Matt trained as a Chartered Accountant before spending seven years in corporate finance, most recently at Deloitte where he was a manager within the deal advisory team. During this period Matt earned some fantastic deal experience, working on a variety of mid-market transactions in the region which he has built on in his time at Key.
Key, Partner James Hall said: “Matt has become a key member of the Key team, both working on new investment opportunities and also providing support and guidance to several of our portfolio businesses.
“I am delighted with how Matt has progressed and this promotion is well-deserved recognition of his growing contribution to the business. I am sure that he will continue to play an important role both on new investments and helping to grow the value of our portfolio.”
I’m delighted to have further progressed my career here at Key, as the firm continues to back ambitious management teams in exciting businesses. Since joining in early 2018, I’ve enjoyed working alongside experienced and straight-forward investment professionals who demonstrate a genuine passion for delivering on behalf of both our investors and the businesses that we invest in.
