Dan Grabos and Jonathan Gerst to take on
augmented roles in M&A
Barclays today announces the appointment of Dan Grabos as
Co-Head of Americas M&A, alongside Larry Hamdan, based in New
York. In this expanded role, Mr. Grabos will provide critical
strategic advice and execution on M&A transactions for
Barclays’ global clients. Mr. Grabos will also continue to serve as
Co-Head of Industrials M&A, a role he has held since joining
Barclays in 2018.
With almost 30 years of experience in investment banking, Mr.
Grabos has advised a number of management teams and boards on
M&A, including L3Harris Technologies on its acquisition of
Aerojet Rocketdyne, and U.S. Ecology, Inc. on its sale to Republic

for over 20 years covering M&A.
Barclays is also pleased to announce that Jonathan Gerst will
take on an expanded role as Co-Head of Industrials M&A, working
alongside Mr. Grabos. Mr. Gerst has been at Barclays since joining
from Lehman Brothers in 2007 and has advised a number of key
clients, including Blackstone on its majority acquisition of
Emerson’s Climate Technologies business, and Spirit Airlines on the
pending sale to JetBlue Airways and prior announced sale to
Frontier Airlines.
“Creating new leadership opportunities for our next generation
of bankers is a key priority for us, and is essential to growing
our market share across all industry verticals,” says Ihsan Essaid,
Co-Head of Global M&A.
“Dan and Jonathan will bring a wealth of experience and new
perspectives to the M&A leadership team that will enable us to
continue driving sustainable growth at Barclays and strong outcomes
and results for our clients,” says Gary Posternack, Co-Head of
