Global Leisure Partners – Resourcing

We are pleased to announce two major personnel events.  In the UK, we have hired Mervyn Metcalf as a Managing Director and Head of GLP’s London office.  Mervyn joins us from Merrill Lynch, where almost uniquely in the market, he was extremely active in coverage of all our core sectors, including Media and Entertainment, Leisure, Retailing and Travel. 

We have also hired three new Associates in London:  Kevin Berry, Andrew Diggles and Frederick Hines.

In the US, we have also added in New York Christopher Mulligan as a Managing Director heading GLP’s US Media and Entertainment business.  Chris brings a wealth of experience building investment banking businesses at RBC, Wit Soundview and Salomon, and deep sector expertise in areas of convergence with our broader leisure practice. 

In addition in New York, GLP has hired Robert Britton as an Associate.

We anticipate further personnel announcements by the end of the first quarter.

For more detail on all our new joiners, please refer to their biographies which are listed on the team page of our website.
