Management Buy-In

First Flight Placements team now has over six decades of experience in mergers and acquisitions. As such, we are able to advise and structure Management Buy-In (MBI) &/or Buy-In/Management-Buy-Out (BIMBO) projects efficiently and effectively offering a full Corporate Finance lead advisory service to buy-side candidates.

  • We specialise in transactions valued in the £1m-£6m range and put acquisition teams together sometimes also with a Chairman &/or Non Exec.
  • First Flight currently has a large number of candidates looking to acquire companies & we have recently increased our team capable of handling MBI/BIMBO transactions on their behalf.
  • Our objective is to find good business opportunities that are profitable, cash-generative & realistically priced. Ideally one or two existing members of the company’s Management team participate to make it a BIMBO project which is preferred by debt funders.
  • We have recently completed 6 MBI/BIMBO transactions with a total value of £15 million.

Welcome to First Flight Placements

First Flight Placements is a successful business providing:  

First Flight is a specialist provider of Non-Executive Directors; our team is instrumental in placing Non-Executive Directors & Chairmen to mature companies and investing Non-Execs to start-up, early stage and developing companies.

We also put together Management Buy-In (MBI) teams often including Non Execs to facilitate an exit strategy for a company owner looking to retire.

We have one of the largest Non-Exec databases in the UK, supported by discreet executive search and focused advertising which allows us to identify the most appropriate candidates and turn around projects rapidly. Our clients therefore enjoy the benefits of a fast and specialised service with competitive fees, reflecting our efficiencies.

First Flight has developed considerable experience in providing these services; we have placed 100 Non Execs into 80 companies in the last few years and have recently completed six MBI transactions in the £1-6m range with a total value of £15m.
