In its most recent expansion move, RedRidge Diligence Services has appointed Tom McClay to its New York office as Director. McClay will be responsible for further embedding RedRidge’s success with private equity groups, investment banks and corporate clients in the Northeast region by providing buy-side and sell-side financial due diligence services.

McClay has extensive experience in financial due diligence, transaction structuring, deal negotiation and post-transaction assistance, having held a number of senior roles within the financial services space. Most recently, Tom served as Director at Grant Thornton LLP where, among other responsibilities, he supervised buy and sell-side financial due diligence.

McClay’s appointment marks a significant step forward in the company’s growth initiative and follows recent expansions in other strategic markets such as Denver, Philadelphia and Dallas – as well as the launch of its first international office in London
