Jonathan Disley has spent a career in corporate finance, restructuring, and capital markets. Much of it in the situations that require conviction to close. He is the founder and principal of The Disley Family Office, an enduring, multi-generational investment platform built on the belief that return is only half the test: every position is weighed for what it delivers and for what it leaves behind a generation from now.

Beginning at global institutions including KPMG, Jonathan built an independent reputation across turnaround strategy, capital structuring, route-to-market execution, and exit planning. He has led more than thirty restructurings, played a central role in launching twenty-five companies and executing seven IPOs, raised over GBP 500 million in capital, and realised more than GBP 400 in exits across property, hospitality, capital markets, restructuring, and private credit, with relationships spanning the UK, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the United States.
