Castle is delighted to share that Tom Gillen, our Corporate Finance Executive, has recently completed his Diploma in Corporate Finance – with impressive results.

Tom commented: “After 500+ hours of study, I’m delighted to have completed the Diploma in Corporate Finance with the CISI & ICAEW after achieving a distinction in the final exam in Corporate Finance Strategy & Advice.

A huge thanks to Castle for their support and Georgi Kirilov (BPP) for his excellent guidance. An incredible learning experience and one I would recommend to anyone interested in M&A advisory.”

Castle Managing Director, Stuart Stepney, added: “We try hard to foster a culture of self-development within the team and so are hugely supportive of Tom’s choice to study for this prestigious exam and so very proud that he was able to achieve this amazing result in such a short space of time. It’s even more incredible to think that Tom was able to gain a pass at the highest level, whilst juggling a busy portfolio of engagements. Our many congratulations go to Tom and we hope he is now able to enjoy some spare time to revel in his achievements.”

Tom joined Castle in November 2021. Since then he has become a crucial member of the team, providing key support to his colleagues and clients across an interesting and diverse range of sectors.

Proof indeed that hard work pays off – well done and huge congratulations Tom!
