Blenheim Chalcot

About the company

Blenheim Chalcot traces its roots back to net decisions, the internet services group founded in 1998. Back then, we set out to create companies that could transform industry sectors. We have since built over 40 businesses in a variety of sectors, including IT services and outsourcing, financial services, education, travel, software, sport and media. Today, our companies have sales of over £350m and employ in excess of 3000 people. Working with entrepreneurs and co-founders, we continue to create and build businesses in these sectors, often from the ground up. We have developed a number of principles that determine the businesses and industries we engage in. We look for high growth, potentially large industry sectors, typically undergoing some market, technology or regulatory discontinuity, where we can build scalable platforms that satisfy a significant customer need, resulting in strong and sustainable margins. We also have a proven approach to developing companies and their teams. We think of them as our building blocks of successful growth companies, combining agile strategy, disciplined governance, processes and financial management, all underpinned by agile leaders and teams. In order to support our businesses, particularly in their earlier stages of growth and as they scale, Blenheim Chalcot also provides a range of Venture Builder services, covering technology, marketing and sales, talent acquisition management, talent development, community, recruitment, accounting, legal and property. This combination of great teams, a supportive environment and continual innovation helps us create established leaders in their fields.
