SANTA ANA, Calif. — Allied Universal has tasked recently appointed Global CFO Tim Brandt to lead the financial operations of the company.
He will focus on the upcoming acquisition and integration of G4S, and the eventual initial public offering (IPO) of the newly consolidated company, according to an announcement.
Prior to joining Allied Universal, Brandt worked for 30 years with Deloitte and was the managing partner of the Orange County (Calif.) practice for the last four years of his career.
He specialized in mergers and acquisitions, IPOs and public debt offerings. Additionally, Brandt has international experience having worked in Deloitte’s Osaka, Japan office.
