Hartley, who joined KPMG’s Leeds office in 1998, worked in corporate finance in the Leeds practice from 2002 and also at KPMG’s Manchester office in 2009 responsible for developing the northern private equity client base.
John Hughes, head of KPMG’s private equity group for the UK regions, said: "With confidence returning to the M&A market, deal completions on the rise and a surge of companies embarking on IPOs, we’re delighted to be strengthening our regional private equity group.
"Alex’s extensive network and solid track record of working closely with both private equity houses and PE-backed businesses mean that he is ideally placed to capitalize on the burgeoning opportunities that we are currently seeing across the marketplace," he added.
