James Richardson worked his way up PwC's market-leading deals practice to lead the Southeast USA region of the Turnaround & Restructuring Team.

A chartered accountant by background, James' experience over the years has included restructuring a bank in South Africa, successfully putting a two-billion dollar Japanese airbag manufacturer through Chapter 11 in North America, interim CFO work, and leading other high-profile financial and transformational engagements in more than ten countries on four continents. He has won several industry awards.
