Hanway Associates Hire New CFO from PwC

Hanway Associates is pleased to announce that Samuel Lewis has joined the team as Chief Financial Officer.

Samuel Lewis joined Hanway from PwCs London Deals team. Sam has extensive experience of restructuring owner-managed businesses, raising debt and equity, building business plans and financial models. Prior to PwC, he was involved with founding a turnaround advisory business and also has experience in operations, licensing and compliance in an emerging market. All of Sam’s previous work has centred around providing advice to management teams to improve operations or to drive towards transactions.

Sam will be responsible for building Hanway’s infrastructure as the company grows.

Sam said: “This is a great opportunity to join a young team shaping the fastest growing industry in the world. What attracted to me to Hanway is their professionalism and impressive list of international clients. I am extremely excited to build Hanway Associates in 2019 with new members of our team as well as international expansion… My role at Hanway isn’t dissimilar to my work in restructuring, in that there is often not a right answer, but it is crucial to act quickly using initiative and commercial perspective.”

George McBride, co-founder of Hanway said: "I'm delighted to have such a talented new member of staff. This hire demonstrates that we are able to secure top talent from the world's leading professional service providers. Having someone with such a strong commercial focus will help improve the breadth and depth of our multidisciplinary approach to problem solving."

Sam is just one of the promising new members joining the Hanway team. Hanway continue to seek and secure top talent to consolidate its position at the forefront of the European cannabis industry.
