“MY GOAL IS TO ALWAYS DELIVER RESULTS THAT MY CLIENTS ARE STRIVING FOR”

Based in our Belfast office, Alexander Hill is a highly skilled Corporate Finance Assistant Manager who supports the wider team by delivering a range of business solutions to a diverse client base. He works closely with owner-managed and family-run businesses, private equity firms, and larger corporations, helping them navigate key financial events and make strategic decisions with confidence.

Alexander plays a crucial role in ensuring clients receive insightful, practical advice aligned with their ambitions.

BUILDING TRUST AND DRIVING RESULTS

“I believe the best client relationships are built on trust, collaboration, and honesty. I always aim to work as an extension of my clients’ teams, ensuring they feel supported every step of the way. That deeper connection allows me to tailor genuinely impactful advice, and there’s a real sense of satisfaction in seeing your work directly contribute to a client’s success or growth. That’s what excites me about working with clients.

Whether it’s structuring a strategic fundraising round or securing a valuation that does justice to the business’s potential, my goal is to always deliver the results they’re striving for and ensure the advice I offer is not only informed but tailored to each client’s goals.”

COLLABORATION IS KEY TO SUCCESS

“For me, working in a team is all about collaboration. It’s about trusting each other, sharing knowledge openly, and knowing that we’re stronger as a team than we are as individuals. Being part of a team like this really pushes me to be the best advisor I can be.

Corporate finance can be fast-paced and complex, but being part of a team that brings together diverse experiences and perspectives is both energising and motivating. We support each other, challenge one another, and celebrate our wins as a team.”

A CONFIDENT AND FOCUSED APPROACH

“The balance between assertiveness and emotional intelligence is key to getting the best results for clients. In corporate finance, we need to have the confidence to present well-reasoned advice and stand by it, even in high-pressure situations. I’m someone who prepares thoroughly, communicates clearly, and isn’t afraid to have difficult conversations when they’re needed to drive the right outcomes. It’s about bringing passion, integrity and energy while maintaining a sense of empathy and respect.”

BALANCING TECH WITH HUMAN TOUCH

“Technology has transformed our industry in all the best ways, making things more efficient and accessible. But there’s huge value in being in the room together and picking up on things that might otherwise get missed virtually.

To me, the best approach is balanced by using technology to advance our insights but never losing sight of the human touch.”

STRENGTHS THAT DRIVE IMPACT

“I bring a genuine passion for learning from and adding value to every client I work with. One client compliment that stuck with me was that they could see me being part of their team. That’s the kind of relationship I want to build, not just as an advisor but as a partner who is genuinely invested in their success.

I’m someone who builds relationships easily, communicates clearly, and thrives on collaboration, whether with clients or colleagues. I pair that with a strong analytical mindset and a drive to continuously improve.”

NO ONE-SIZE-FITS ALL

“One of the biggest challenges in corporate finance is the variety of situations we deal with, as no two businesses are ever the same. I make it a priority to get to know each client’s business and understand their concerns, their goals, and the wider landscape in which they operate. I build advice that’s both commercially grounded and genuinely relevant. I always aim to simplify the complexities and help clients move forward with clarity and confidence.”

MORE THAN JUST NUMBERS

“One thing I have always pushed back on is the stereotype that accountants lack empathy or personality. Understanding people is just as important as understanding numbers. Yes, we work with data, but helping people make smart decisions in situations where the stakes are high is at the heart of what we do.”

INVESTING IN MY FUTURE AND THEIR FUTURE

“What excites me most about the future is the opportunity to make a real, tangible impact in the local business community. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about knowing your work contributes to positive change by supporting growth, creating jobs, and strengthening local economies. At AAB, I’m surrounded by passionate, talented professionals who are as committed to personal growth as they are to client success.”
