In her time working in the community pharmacy sector, Holly has developed close, trusted relationships with operators, agents, funders and other advisers. She pairs this with a practical, hands-on approach that helps keep deals on track and running smoothly.
Commenting on her appointment, Holly said: “The pharmacy sector continues to see an active market, despite continuing operational challenges. I’m excited to join a firm that shares my focus on being a real partner to operators using sector specific expertise, building strong relationships and delivering practical, commercially grounded advice.”
