Graham Down MIPA, MABRP,
Founder
Graham trained as a Chartered Accountant with the family firm in South Wales. He obtained his licence to act as an Insolvency Practitioner in 1988. In 1990 he joined a major national accounting firm to set up its corporate recovery and insolvency department in the South West, where he was involved in a number of high profile assignments and managed a portfolio of liquidations under the law of Gibraltar.
In 1995 he was invited to become a partner in a London-based, niche insolvency practice, again establishing that firm’s presence in the South West. In 2009 he was instrumental in setting up Burton Sweet Corporate Recovery.
Paul Harding
Partner & Authorised Insolvency Practitioner
Paul has spent the majority of his working life in the insolvency arena and at various periods this has taken him to work in London, Birmingham, Wales and several of the Shire Counties. He has seen many changes in the profession but the “insolvency buzz” is still with him and over the years he has become a member of the Insolvency Practitioners Association, a member of the Association of Business Recovery Professionals and is licensed by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. He obtained his licence as an Insolvency Practitioner in 1987.
Over the last 25 years, he has been invited to become a partner in a mid-tier firm and then joined a “big 4” firm where he was for over 12 years before realising he wanted to return to the “real commercial world”.
