Baxendale Employee Ownership is a specialist management consultancy with an industry-leading specialism in employee ownership and ownership cultures. We specialise in employee ownership and engagement, supporting clients to reimagine, transform and grow their organisations.
At Baxendale Employee Ownership, employee ownership is what we do: we help businesses transition into employee ownership and support businesses post transition. We are passionate about helping businesses and business owners find the ownership models that are right for them.
We can offer start-to-finish support, drawing on the legal and commercial experience of our expert team. As well as creating the financial, legal and governance structures for a transition into employee ownership, we also work with employees to help them understand the changes that are taking place and what employee ownership will mean for them.
We have a 20-year track record in providing specialist advice and support on employee ownership. We’re employee owned ourselves, so we know the benefits first hand.
Unrivalled support and guidance for businesses that are, or want to become, employee owned or worker co-operatives. Fixed fee structure and access to full services legal support.
The Co-ownership Solutions story is a simple one. We passionately believe that employee ownership and worker co-operative models provide a better and fairer way of doing business. We want to help form more of them and help develop existing co-owned businesses.
We don’t do ‘one size fits all’ or impose a prescribed ideological solution.
We focus on delivering solutions that suits our clients’ specific needs. Our team works with business owners, boards of directors and employees to design and develop employee ownership models and governance structures that suit your specific circumstances, history, culture and future vision.
Supported by leading legal firm, Blake Morgan LLP, we offer clients a capped fee structure and our clients tell us that we deliver exceptional service and have unmatched expertise – feel free to ask them.
We are experts in employee ownership structuring covering the full range of legal and tax advice in relation to employee buyouts and succession planning.
Fieldfisher is a market leading practice with deep expertise in and experience of employee ownership.
