Directors

Richard Haden-Scott, CEO

Richard Haden-Scott established the business in 1996 as a traditional Business Transfer Agency. In 1998 as part of his expansion plans moved business to larger premises at Kersey Mill, close to Hadleigh, Suffolk. The business enjoyed a steady growth pattern with a structured employment and training program. With an ethos of customer service it became clear some clients required a more specialised and personal approach to the sale of their businesses. Listening to our client’s feedback the business was able to specialise in the sale of businesses within the service sectors. 

Richard’s role within the business is strategic planning, training, overseeing business valuations and advising business owners how best to prepare their businesses for sale, ensuring maximum rewards.

Prior to acquiring the business Richard was an independent business consultant advising various businesses on growth and development strategies and implementing training programs.
