LAVA has announced that it has become the U.K.'s first boutique M&A advisory firm to transition to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT), reflecting significant recent growth and creating an immensely exciting opportunity for the team.

Founded in September 2020, LAVA was designed to disrupt the M&A industry with its innovative approach to both dealmaking and teambuilding. Partners Simon Woodcock and Hamish Martin launched LAVA with the aim of building 'a place we actually wanted to work', and this announcement is testament to their ongoing commitment to the company's success.

LAVA is a certified B Corp, and commits 2.5% of annual revenue directly to its charity partners, so becoming the first boutique M&A advisory to transition to an EOT further underpins its unique approach and ongoing commitment to doing the right thing for clients, employees and the community.
