Hi all,
I’m the principal behind MBT, a UK-anchored, innovation-led acquisition platform focused on acquiring and scaling industrial and essential services businesses across the UK and select EU markets.
We’re looking to partner with independent deal originators / buy-side introducers who source off-market or lightly intermediated transactions, on a success-fee-only basis (paid at completion).
Our acquisition focus:
• Sectors: Industrial services, HVAC & facilities services, timber & sawmills, manufacturing support, B2B essential services
• Geography: UK (primary); EU (select markets – Benelux, Nordics, DACH)
• EBITDA: £500k – £5m
• Deal type: Majority or full acquisitions
• Seller profile: Owner-managed, succession-driven, growth-constrained
What we bring:
• Clear mandate and fast decision-making
• Institutional process (NDA → IOI → diligence → close)
• Flexible deal structures (rollovers, earn-outs, deferred consideration)
• Fair success fees paid on completed transactions only
• Long-term platform buyer (not a one-off search)
For background on the platform, our website is here:

If you source deals independently or sit close to business owners considering a transition, feel free to DM me with a short introduction.
