Roc named as Business Magazine Thames Valley Mid-Range Deal of the Year 2017

Newbury UK – Friday 20th April 2018 – Roc Technologies has been named as the Business Magazine Thames Valley Mid-Range Deal of the Year at the Annual Thames Valley Deals Awards 2018, held at the Madejski Stadium in Reading on the 19th April 2018.

The Thames Valley Deals Awards brings together corporate finance advisers, lawyers, bankers, private equity investors, accountants, funding specialists, and the management teams of companies transacting deals during the year to recognise excellence in corporate finance.

Roc, a Newbury based transformation services provider enables public and private sector to define and deliver strategic improvements through their investment in business change, business process and technology platform and IT managed services transformation. With over 60% of Roc employees being security cleared to SC level of above, Roc works with UK public sector organisations in defence, justice, health, higher education, and energy, as private companies in sensitive industries such as finance, insurance, pharmaceuticals and life sciences.

In 2017, Roc acquired London based City Change Management, one of the UK’s leading providers of programme and project management services and received investment from the British Growth Fund (BGF), one of the world’s leading private equity investors in growing businesses.

Matt Franklin, CEO of Roc Technologies comment, “Last year was a significant and positive year in Roc’s history, with our acquisition of City Change Management and the strategic investment from BGF happening at the end of what was a period of accelerated growth for the business. Our recent inclusion in The Sunday Times BDO Profit Track 100 league table, which ranks Britain’s fast growing private companies demonstrates how the Roc team is creating one of the UK’s most exciting transformation service providers. The BGF investment and CCM transaction happened incredibly smoothly, allowing our team to keep focused on our customer’s needs, and to me that is the sign of a great investment partner.”
