A clear direction...
The richard alan group is the “service vehicle” for 6 complementary but independently successful companies. These businesses are supported at group level by a head office whose functions include:
• strategy & direction
• health, safety and environmental
• accountancy & finance
• purchasing & stores
• human resources
• accounts, wages & salaries
• general administration
The group provides all the support of a central head office thus giving each business license to concentrate on core activities without the burden of individual and costly office infrastructures.
There are two principle strategies for the group: “show continuous growth from each business” and “expand the group offering by business development and acquisition”. Today, building on these commitments, the group has achieved annual sales of over £12m and employs 150 people.
Across the group there is a deep routed desire for personal success, individual company success and group success. Giving employees encouragement, investment and development towards becoming entrepreneurs in their own right is a conscious approach, combined with a top management style that does not stand in the way of progress. There is no doubt the long term success of the group can only be guaranteed by having the very best people who share a driving ambition for success.
