Lighthouse Risk Services, a specialist health and safety and employment law consultancy based in Leeds, has completed its first acquisition with a deal for ISO management system specialist HSEQ Smart.
The deal represents the first acquisition for Lighthouse, which was founded in 2007 and became part of the JMG Group in 2023. The acquisition is a strategic move aimed at enabling growth and broadening Lighthouse’s services.
The acquisition was assisted with investment and support from JMG Group. The deal will expand Lighthouse’s services, enabling the company to meet growing demand from customers seeking ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) accreditation support.
The ISO stamp signifies that an independent organisation has verified that a company’s internal systems adhere to international standards for quality and consistency. HSEQ Smart helps businesses to attain ISO-standard management systems and ensures compliance through health and safety training.
Following the acquisition, HSEQ Smart will retain its name and operate from its newly refurbished Durham offices. The business will continue to be led by Director Brian Greene, ensuring continuity of service for customers.
Lighthouse Commercial Director Gwyn Evans said: “We’ve seen an increasing desire from our clients to achieve ISO certification and having Brian on board will allow us to meet that demand internally. We were attracted to HSEQ Smart due to their like-minded client-first approach and excellent reputation in the industry.”
HSEQ Smart Director Brian Greene added: “Joining Lighthouse will accelerate our growth while allowing us to stay hands-on and provide the same high standard of service to our clients.”
“Lighthouse is an ideal partner for us; together, we’ll be able to offer a wider range of services, and our clients will benefit from the additional pool of knowledge available within the group.”
“We’ve earned a reputation for preparing clients for ISO certification, achieving a 100% first-time pass rate. This partnership will allow us to further build on this success and strengthen our ability to meet customer needs and keep them on track to meet their compliance goals.”
