Case Study
Why They Came to Us
At the helm of Pride Health & Social Care is Dee Mhungu, who by his own admission is a big dreamer, with ambitions to grow the business through acquisition as well as organic expansion. Turning those ambitions into reality meant finding a team who could match his pace: a Fractional Finance Director to keep the numbers and goals aligned, and specialist support to handle the complexities of buying another business. Griffiths Marshall stepped in on both fronts, with Ian leading the acquisition work and Pascal joining more recently as Fractional FD.
Pascal gives me those reminders of where I’m at and where I need to get to. His detailed management accounts are key to inform our next move.
Our Services
What We Did
When Dee set his sights on Jarrodean, a £2million business, Ian was there from the outset, leading the due diligence, negotiating the heads of terms and price, structuring a phased earn-out and instructing the solicitors who saw the deal through to completion.
Since the acquisition, Pascal has joined Dee’s team as a Fractional FD, keeping his numbers, and his next steps, in clear view. All in all, what started as accountancy support has grown into a much closer partnership. Dee credits Ian’s knowledge and his steady presence throughout the acquisition, alongside a personal relationship that’s developed along the way.
Ian was fundamental to our acquisition of Jarrodean. All in a single year, we’ve been able to acquire a £2m business, which we couldn’t have done without a really good accountant by our side.
