Nick Burley, the former Chief Financial Officer at European healthcare services business Alliance Medical, has joined the new Capital Solutions team at sustainable investment manager Downing LLP.
Nick will join Downing’s Capital Solutions team and partner with former M&G Fund Manager Paul Taylor, who recently joined Downing. Downing’s newly established team will launch a series of new investment activities and funds, managing capital on behalf of institutional investors.
With over 30 years of operational and transactional experience, Nick’s expertise will be crucial for both investors and portfolio businesses. Nick will lead strategic transactions and work closely with investors to deliver the ambitious growth plans of the Capital Solutions team.
Nick’s career post-qualification has included senior operational and corporate finance roles in GE, Allied Domecq, McCormick and the Vita Group, prior to joining Alliance Medical – spending the last 20 years at FD/CFO level. His experience has included more than 50 M&A transactions, a planned IPO, as well as several successful operational and balance sheet restructuring and turnaround situations.
Downing’s Capital Solutions team will deploy funds from institutional investors into opportunities with high return potential, in sectors such as healthcare services in the private equity space and European real estate, where the team has strong investor and investee networks.
Nick Burley said: “Our new Capital Solutions team is focused on identifying off-market opportunities, which have the potential for delivering enhanced returns to investors and which require operational as well as capital solutions to unlock that potential – I look forward to supporting its expansion and success. It is exciting to bring together a team that has a history of delivery to an entrepreneurial and fast-growing investment manager such as Downing, whose commitment to sustainable investing is underlined by its recent accreditation as a B Corp.”
Paul Taylor, Head of Downing Capital Solutions, Downing LLP, said: “I am delighted to welcome Nick to the team. Both transactional investment and portfolio management expertise are key to our ability to build a business of significant scale and Nick has decades of experience in both of these areas. As we move forward, we look forward to announcing more new joiners and activities soon.”
Kostas Manolis, Head of Private Market Investments, Downing LLP, said: “Nick’s appointment is another vital building block in the establishment of our new Capital Solutions strategy. His experience will bring invaluable insights and ensure operational excellence from the beginning, as we continue to strengthen our private markets activities.”
