Kay and Burton.Kay and Burton has announced the addition of seven new equity partners to its corporate structure.
The need to "maximise the impact" of its investments has led Kay & Burton to add seven new equity partners to its corporate structure.
Last year proved to be a productive one for the firm, which not only launched new sales and property management businesses in Brighton and Armadale, but also implemented market-leading cloud based technology for its customers.
Kay & Burton Non-Executive Chairman Rob Edgley said the latest development would ensure the firm's corporate structure would have a "unique" equity offering for partners to buy into.
"In contrast to a franchise model, Kay & Burton operates as one firm working together to ensure the best possible outcomes are achieved for our clients," he said.
“We are very excited to announce this diverse group of talented and high-performing business professionals as our new equity partners.
"We are certain that they will be instrumental in taking Kay & Burton to even greater heights."
