Marktlink announces new office in London
As the international mergers and acquisitions market heats, M&A consultancy Marktlink is looking to capitalise on the moment with the opening of a fourth UK office. The London hub sees the firm establish a presence in Europe’s financial capital.
First launched in the Netherlands in 1996, Marktlink is a specialist M&A consulting firm, working with small and mid-tier clients around the world. The advisory firm boasts an international team of over 180 M&A specialists, and facilitates companies with transactions valued between €5 million and €250 million.
With the M&A market having reportedly turned a corner from a difficult two years, Marktlink has been positioning itself to make the most of the potential rebound. This saw it add to its Manchester office with new presences in Birmingham and Nottingham in 2024. Now, Marktlink has followed that up with the launch of a fourth UK locale, this time in nation’s capital.
The 17th addition to the firm’s expanding international network, Marktlink’s London wing is located in the St Paul’s area. The new hub highlights our dedication to delivering tailored M&A advisory services and solidifies our role as a key player in the European M&A market – and will be helmed by Victoria Ansell, a corporate finance adviser with a robust professional network in Central London and the South East, will lead the London team.
A statement from the firm commented, “London has long been a focal point for expansion strategies in the UK. Our presence here allows us to better serve entrepreneurs by connecting them with potential buyers who often begin their search in London. Victoria and her team are introducing a unique approach to the London market that blends local expertise with a broad European network, all while prioritising the interests of entrepreneurs in every transaction.”
Looking ahead, Ansell confirmed that the firm is “actively looking to grow” its London team, with plans to recruit both junior and senior professionals to support our expanding project pipeline. Ultimately, the goal is to create a team of “approximately 30 experts”, fostering a “collaborative culture that encourages cross-border opportunities” – enhancing Marktlink’s ability to connect UK businesses with European buyers.
