Tom Gilchrist

I work across Strategy & Financial Advisory consulting, placing Growth strategy, CDD, Transformation, Transactions and Financial Advisory consultants with rapidly scaling boutique and mid-tier businesses.
I work across geographies, primarily delivering to mandates across USA, UK & Europe, however we also build out brand new offices for our long-standing clients spanning across APAC, MENA and LATAM too.

My team and I primarily work on a contingent basis, filling roles ranging from Consultant to Partner/MD.

I chose Leadenhall due to the fantastic company-culture, as well as the commission structure. Both reasons placed it very high on my list searching for graduate jobs after university. The opportunity to work at a tight-knit company in the heart of London was one I struggled to pass up.

I studied History of Art at Edinburgh, and thoroughly enjoyed my four years! Outside of academics and sport at University, I was a member of the reeling society, and took part in debating as well. I also loved exploring the amazing city that is Edinburgh, finding nice restaurants and scenic views. I took several trips up to the Highlands, as well as visiting the Scottish Islands.

Outside of work I really enjoy playing racket sports, particularly enjoying Squash and Padel Tennis. I am also a keen runner, having completed the Edinburgh Marathon during my time at university, and will be running the Rome Marathon later this year.
