John Sheridan

I am the Managing Partner of Clearwater International’s Irish business. As founders of this business, John Curtin and I joined up with Clearwater in October 2015 having traded as a boutique brand known as Core Corporate Finance over the previous year. Prior to this, I was Managing Director at Key Capital Corporate Finance in Dublin, where I worked for eight years. I have 21 years’ experience as a corporate finance professional having originally qualified as a chartered accountant with PwC in 1997. At Clearwater, I lead our food & beverage team internationally. Our team in Ireland covers all sectors with a particular focus on food & beverage, TMT, industrials & chemicals and business services. The deals I am most proud of are the sale of IT services business, Version1, where we advised the shareholders on the company’s sale to private equity firm, Volpi Capital in a €90m MBO, followed recently by the sale of telecommunications engineering business, KN Group to French-based Circet. Since joining Clearwater, I try to lead by example and inspire our team to drive for excellence and high performance in everything we do. The strong results-oriented and personalised culture of our firm helps both retain and attract great talent. I enjoy working with highly ambitious entrepreneurs who are looking to develop their business internationally and use my experience gained over the past 21 years in navigating the optimal M&A process to help achieve their goals. I have completed eleven transactions over the past three years at Clearwater with a combined deal value of c. €1bn.

I’ve spent 25 years advising entrepreneurs and private equity clients and am passionate about supporting growing businesses to build and realise value. I opened the Leeds office for Clearwater in 2020, and before that had been a Partner at EY and Grant Thornton, in Australia and the UK. In my spare time, I love spending time with my family, walking my dog Murphy in the Moors, playing football or golf and supporting Liverpool football club.

Having joined Clearwater from a smaller mid-cap team in 2016, I have since enjoyed the exciting journey we have taken from Wiesbaden to Frankfurt to becoming a European firm with a great team, entrepreneurial spirit, and international setup. Today, I focus on M&A transactions within the Business Services sector and cover our private equity clients across the DACH region. Beyond the investment banking world, I enjoy spending time with family and friends or hitting the open road on my bike.
