bk plus appoints head of restructuring

Accounting and advisory firm bk plus, headquartered in Aldridge, near Walsall, has appointed David Griffiths as partner and head of restructuring, strengthening its senior team and SME advisory services across the UK.

David brings more than 24 years of insolvency and restructuring experience, including 15 years as a licensed insolvency practitioner, supporting hundreds of businesses through complex challenges.

He said: “bk plus has built a team with real depth and energy.

“The growth over the last few years is remarkable – but it’s the quality of the people, and the trust clients place in them, that really stands out. 

“We’re seeing businesses under pressure from every angle right now, and they deserve advisors who can listen, act fast, and work alongside them. 

“That’s exactly what we’re here to do.”

David’s appointment follows the transition of Richard Tonks, former head of restructuring, to head of acquisitions, marking a strategic milestone as bk plus continues to expand its restructuring team and invest in regional expertise.

Richard added: “The recent hires of Brett Barton, Margaret Carter and now David, along with more to come, show the momentum we have in this area. 

“It’s the right moment for me to focus on the acquisitions side of the business, which is accelerating fast. 

“I’m proud of what we’ve built so far, and I know David and the team will take it to the next level.”

The firm now operates from 30 offices nationwide, providing people-focused accounting and advisory services to SMEs.

Shaun Knight, chief executive of bk plus, added: “This is the right move at the right time. 

“David’s experience speaks for itself, but what really makes him a perfect fit is the way he works with people – calm, clear, and committed to doing the right thing. 

“We’re building something different at bk plus: a firm where people can grow quickly, clients can trust what they hear, and regional teams deliver national impact. 

“David strengthens all of that.”
