Working over a period of some six years with David Craddock Consultancy has allowed me to undertake the systematic transfer the ownership of the company I created to key managers in a management buy-out arrangement in March 2016.  David’s ability to address all matters of the challenge has helped me effect a smooth transition and allowed the managers to be empowered with shares on a stage-by-stage basis.  David always listened to the objectives I set and displayed a flexibility that allowed him to accommodate to varying circumstances.  David one-stop shop approach has enabled me to cover all aspects of my management buy-out, including all the corporate governance without involving other advisors.  As well as helping me with the strategy and the vision for the management buy-out, David dealt with all details of the transaction and has ensured that all tax matters are covered.  For me the success of our management buy-out lay in the fact that the business transferred to new management with no disruption. David Craddock Consultancy worked to ensure that this happened.
