HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J. — Sun Mergers & Acquisitions, LLC is pleased to announce the addition of John Polli as senior vice president. John will work with business owners and acquirers interested in pursuing exit strategies, or expanding their current operations.

John formerly served as SVP of business development and acquisitions for National Express Corp, where he was responsible for multiple substantial nationwide acquisitions. John has led several companies within the student transportation, trucking, and waste disposal industries through a series of successful growth and exit initiatives, becoming a trusted advisor on effective transition and management of M&A activity.

Scott O’Rourke, managing partner of Sun M&A stated:

“We are very pleased to welcome John Polli to the Sun team. His addition will continue to expand our activity in the School Bus Transportation Industry. John’s expertise in closing substantial transactions in the ‘yellow bus business,’ as well as operating and selling a multi-location company, will serve as an important asset as we continue to orchestrate national industry deals.”

John brings a diversified 20-year background that provides a deep understanding of the many aspects of privately owned middle market businesses. He started his career as a CPA with a “Big 5” firm; served as CFO in the private sector with responsibility for six successful acquisitions. He then purchased, expanded, and sold a multi-location regional student transportation business. John appreciates the many facets of the business sale process with unique insight from a financial consulting, owner/seller, and acquirer perspective.
