About us

Garwood Growth is a new business with a lifetime of invaluable experience and an enviable track record

The four founding partners — and the rest of the team at Garwood Growth — are coming together to build the UK's leading consultancy specifically designed for professional services firms.

After successful partnership roles at KPMG and Accenture, Rob and Simon ran, grew and managed successful exits from their own professional services businesses. Having created Garwood Solutions in 2018, they're proud to build on Garwood's heritage of helping professional services firms grow and improve operations.

Fellow Garwood Growth founding partners John and Paul bring new skills and perspectives. John has long experience in running and growing consultancy firms. He was a Partner at KPMG and also led the PE-backed MBO of a boutique consultancy as CEO. Paul is an M&A veteran, most recently at leading global firm Houlihan Lokey. He has advised dozens of businesses on M&A journeys and other capital events. Garwood Growth is headquartered in London.
