Stockport-based decarbonisation and building services design consultancy, S I Sealy, has undergone a management buyout.
The company formed in 1949 has developed into one of the largest specialist building services engineering design consultancies in the North of England. Its services include Building Services Engineering Design, Building & Energy Modelling and Sustainability.
Projects include working in sectors such as health, education and hospitality.
Daniel Madden, a director of the company since 2016, is now the sole director, having acquired fellow director David Stafford’s shares through the MBO. He now owns 100% of S I Sealy & Associates. Stafford will become a specialist advisor.
He officially retires in April next year and for the next 12 months, he and Madden will “finesse and implement a long term plan for growth.”
During this period, the pair will work on transitioning key projects and business activities to Madden. Stafford’s advisory role will gradually reduce over the years.
They will continue with S I Sealy’s people-focused approach as their ‘home grown’, internal talent steps into wider roles. One outcome of this focus will be the creation of a strong management support team around Madden.
Madden said: “Staying independent, focused, and strong will remain our strategy for the foreseeable future as we continue to work across all sectors. Key sectors like healthcare and education where we have achieved market leadership will, of course, remain important as we attract new commercial, industrial, leisure, and residential projects.”
He added: “Remaining efficient and competitive in how we deliver building services design solutions which are ahead of the curve, will keep us profitable, sustainable and people focused. Our plans for growth give our fantastic team an opportunity to capitalise on our success as we continue to serve our loyal client base."
S I Sealy said the management buyout gives the business long term security, stability and independence, while continuing to innovate and develop.
