I am a founding partner of Aliter Capital LLP, a different type of private equity firm , aiming to support management teams drive the growth and value of their businesses in the support services sector. Along with my colleagues at Aliter, we aim to deliver upper quartile returns for the investors in our funds. Since its launch in 2017, Aliter has earned a reputation for investing in and building great mid-sized businesses. We offer decades of previous experience investing in and building support services companies. We know what works and what builds value and we know what can get in the way.𝐀 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐲It’s especially important to the firm that we offer a different way of working with the management teams in our investments. We don’t just turn up for board meetings every month to check the numbers. We aim to work alongside and be totally aligned with management teams; to drive growth and add value, sharing risks and rewards along the way. We don’t believe in loading up balance sheets with unsustainable debt; we aim for a more balanced capital structure.𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 From our offices in London, Manchester and Glasgow, we work with management teams to set a clear strategy. We deliver expert support and we help navigate the road ahead. Our track record confirms that, together, we can create outstanding value.𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬Our model is to invest and focus on a handful of platform businesses.
