BTG bolsters leadership in Leeds

Professional services consultancy Begbies Traynor Group (BTG) has promoted licensed insolvency practitioner Ben Fallon to director at its Leeds office.

Ben joined the business recovery and financial advisory firm in 2012 as a trainee administrator and has progressed through the ranks over the past 12 years. 

He became a chartered accountant in 2018 and a licensed insolvency practitioner in 2022, most recently serving as a senior manager supporting national restructuring projects.

Now part of the BTG advisory team, Ben works on turnaround and refinancing assignments, financial due diligence and independent business reviews for businesses and lenders across the UK.

Ben said: “I am looking forward to helping the partners in Yorkshire and the wider firm, taking both insolvency appointments and turnaround assignments as we look to continue to grow the BTG advisory division in the North. 

“I am from Wetherby, and it is very rewarding to have been able to progress my career here in this region, supporting its businesses through tough times.”

The Leeds office is one of ten Begbies Traynor Group locations in Yorkshire, the Humber and the North East, delivering a wide range of professional services from insolvency and forensic accounting to corporate finance, funding and property advisory.

Julian Pitts, regional managing partner for Begbies Traynor, in Yorkshire, added: “Ben has earned this step up to director with more than a dozen years working across our insolvency and advisory teams on a wide range of national and Yorkshire businesses.  

“We’re expanding our capability across the region, and Ben’s varied background will be valuable in helping the region’s businesses and advising directors on restructuring and turnaround matters during some very turbulent times for the economy.”
