Hilco Global expanded the service offerings of Hilco Global Advisors with the introduction of Hilco Pension Advisory. The development was driven by the company’s recruitment of John Spencer, who joined the company as senior managing director of Hilco Pension Advisory.

Spencer’s has experience across M&A, bankruptcies, litigation support, pension cost analysis, actuarial malpractice, church plans, MEPP analysis, and support in labor negotiations. Spencer’s previous successful mandates have involved collaborations amongst plan sponsors, private equity firms, large corporates, creditors, regulatory entities and unions.

“Joining forces with Hilco Global presents an unparalleled opportunity to drive innovation and deliver impactful solutions in the pension space,” Spencer said. “The collective experience of the new HPA team and the strategic vision and expertise of the broader Hilco Global platform position us to navigate complex pension challenges and deliver tailored solutions that optimize results for clients.”

Working alongside Spencer, Bob Campbell will assume the role of director of Hilco Pension Advisory. With more than 60 years of combined experience in pension transactions, restructuring, actuarial consulting and litigation support, Spencer and Campbell will lead the division’s growth.

“The addition of John Spencer as senior managing director of this new group underscores our commitment to strengthening our expertise and expanding our service offerings,” Tom Greco, CEO of Hilco Global Advisors, said. “John’s leadership will be instrumental in driving the success of Hilco Pension Advisory and delivering unparalleled value to our clients.”
