About

Mr. Schofield grew up in the North West of England and began his career in M&A as an office junior, taking every opportunity to get involved in as many aspects of the business as he could. This led to him working directly with sellers, buyers, solicitors and finance providers alike to bring deals together with as few complicationas possible. In time, this experience was turned to helping others develop their own skills and guiding operational development of the business, something he findvery engaging and still drives him today. Kieran’s focus is primarily on helping the business improve its own processes and operational concerns, but with the fundamental understanding that outcomes should always, ultimately, improve client experiencesThis means putting into practice development plans based on feedback from clients and our own internal teams. He firmly believes that no business should ever stand stilland Benchmark International is no exception.
