Before joining Kroll, Kris was a director in the Restructuring team at Alvarez & Marsal (“A&M”).

Prior to joining A&M, Kris spent two and a half years with Monitor, the English financial healthcare regulator, and before that over 14 years with KPMG’s mid-market restructuring team.

During his time at Monitor, he worked closely with the boards of several financially distressed acute hospitals, providing advice to help them design and implement operational turnaround and transformation plans to stabilize and improve their financial position.

At KPMG, he worked across a number of restructuring areas ranging from cash and working capital management, independent business reviews, operational turnarounds and trading administrations. While at KPMG, Kris also spent a one-year secondment with RBS’ Strategic Investments Group; the team within RBS, which was responsible for debt for equity transactions and managing and exiting the portfolio of those assets. Kris worked on several complex cases while on secondment, all of which generated significant equity value for RBS.
