UK mid-market private equity firm LDC has added two to its North East and Scotland team with the appointment of Aaron Lawson-Clark as an Investment Director and Emma Borrie as an Investment Manager.
With more than 15 years’ experience across private equity and corporate banking, Lawson-Clark has spent his career supporting the growth of scale-up to mid-sized businesses across all sectors of the economy. He joins from Mercia Asset Management, and was formerly at NVM Private Equity, where he led multiple transactions across the UK and joined the board of a portfolio of scale-up businesses to support their growth.
Borrie joins from family office investment firm Middleton Enterprises. Here she helped to develop a new private equity strategy and supported investments into growing SMEs across the UK. Emma previously spent six years as an audit specialist at KPMG, and worked with listed businesses and large enterprises across a range of sectors, including industrials, healthcare and retail and consumer.
In their new roles, Lawson-Clark and Borrie will work closely with LDC’s seven-strong team in the North East and Scotland to support the firm’s pledge of investing in 100 medium-sized businesses nationally over the next five years.
