❓ WHAT'S THE BEST THING ABOUT YOUR JOB? Jonathon Ellerington, Senior Investment Manager at Barwood Capital, said: 🗣️ "It's got to be the variety. At Barwood Capital there’s a lot of exciting areas you can work in. One day you could be looking at acquisitions, and the next investment or asset management. I’m quite lucky in that my role is quite broad. "The property world is so open, the network is so far-reaching, that you could be in Manchester one day and working in London the next. "Working in the regions allows us to be on the road more and spot opportunities. You can gain a much better understanding of local markets than if you were based in London."

I’m excited to announce that today I’m starting the next chapter of my career at RingStone, a provider of technical due diligence and technology assessments to private equity firms and investment banks. Having spent my preceding years sitting at the nexus of business and technology in consulting and software startups, RingStone is a front row seat to learn how these two topics converge related to investments and M&A. So, what is Tech Due Diligence? Tech Due Diligence (TDD) is a fundamental part (or should be) of every M&A transaction, determining the ability of a business to maintain, grow, or integrate its market share after a transaction. Acquirers have investment theses to increase a target’s top-line growth, improve EBITDA, and expand multiples and company values. Performing a rigorous TDD can uncover red flags that may falsify these theses and require an updated offer. Likewise, companies seeking acquisition can engage in TDD ~12-months before a potential sale to uncover any red flags and get their internal house in order, thus commanding a fair market value, before putting themselves up for bid.
