Credentials
We are proud of our reputation as one of the North of England’s leading corporate finance advisors – something which has been recognised consistently in the industry awards we have won over a number of years.

Of more importance to us, however, is the feedback and comments we get from our clients, a selection of which is shown below. If you would like further references please do not hesitate to contact us.

"without their leadership this deal would not have happened. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to other clients"
"It was a pleasure working with the BHP Corporate Finance team on this MBO. They kept everyone moving forward through some very testing times and I strongly believe without their leadership this deal would not have happened. I would have no hesitation in using BHP Corporate Finance again and indeed recommending them to other clients."
Bridie Warner-Adsetts | MD

"integral to making the MBO happen…an outcome that exceeded our expectations"
"Their approach was one of guidance, encouragement and calmness. They helped us keep perspective and find the necessary resilience to overcome the many challenges of a deal in the current economic climate. They are a great team and a pleasure to work with. Most importantly, we achieved an outcome that exceeded our expectations."
Charles Buddery | Chief Executive
Dig for Fire DMG
"utterly professional, able to add real value and frankly very easy to work with"
"I have worked with BHP Corporate Finance both to buy companies and to sell my own. Subsequently I have even found myself on the other side of a transaction from them. All of this arguably leaves me uniquely qualified to comment on their all round strengths. In each instance I have found them utterly professional, able to add real value and frankly very easy to work with. Business doesn't need people who complicate situations simply to justify their own involvement and fees."
Kevan Bingham | MD
Mayflower Engineering
"blended seamlessly with our team ... professional skill and good humour in a wonderful balance"
"Throughout the inevitable ups and downs of the MBO process, I felt they blended seamlessly with our management team. Understanding that we also had a business to run as normal, they quickly grasped the significance of key issues, and ensured that our time went where it was best placed. Professional skill and good humour in a wonderful balance - it was a pleasure to work with them."
Mark Bowler | CEO
MoneyPlus Group
"skills and expertise in abundance [and] their wise counsel which is of huge value"
"What I get from the BHP Corporate Finance team is not only skills and expertise, which they have in abundance, but also their wise counsel which is of huge value. We have completed three deals together and I look forward to more in the future."
Tony Jex | MD
Jex Engineering Company
"instrumental throughout the process…excellent support at all times of the day and night"
"They came into our business, listened to our needs and were able to locate suitable companies for the long term future of Jex Engineering. They were instrumental throughout the negotiating process and provided excellent support for ourselves at all times of the day and night.
From the first meeting we were very impressed with the professionalism and commitment from the team. As a result Jex Engineering was successful in being acquired by the Redhall Group PLC."
Geoff Sheekey | Chairman
Oughtred & Harrison (Facilities)
"expertise, teamwork and professionalism….I could totally rely on their advice"
"Their expertise, teamwork and professionalism was soon apparent and compared very favourably with the so called 'big 4' which enabled us to complete the share purchase in a very smooth manner. On any corporate finance matter it is essential that you have confidence in your advisors and I quickly realised that I could totally rely on their advice.
I would strongly recommend them."
