We are proud of the positive impact we have made on the businesses we acquire and the seamless transition we facilitate for both their owners and people. These testimonials highlight their experiences during the sale process, the support they received, and their confidence in leaving their businesses in capable hands.
“Cadman Cranes was acquired by the Milbank Group back in September 2016 and was one of their first acquisitions. Despite it being an exciting time everyone was naturally concerned about the future. But Milbank Group communicated early and well at all levels of the business and made commitments that they honoured throughout the first few months. There were changes but never with a view to cutting costs and more about exploring new opportunities and developing people. I am a perfect example of that development having risen from a technical sales role to Managing Director within 4 years.
Today there are many more group companies. We are all run independently with minimal oversight, but the support and resources are available at Group level to assist us in achieving our own version of success. Despite being distinct businesses, we all communicate regularly, and we all share similar values – treating people well, providing a quality service and looking after the planet – and its refreshing to be in an organisation that genuinely believes in these things.”
