When one of the UK’s leading privately owned construction groups, Willmott Dixon, wished to scale up its funding capacity, we stepped in to work closely with management and provide the desired solution.
The challenge
The construction sector is finding raising funds increasingly challenging due to some recent failures and reduced appetite from specific lenders.
For Willmott Dixon, securing additional working capital was important, not just to maintain their competitive edge but to fuel the ambitions of a forward-thinking business. They needed to navigate a shrinking pool of willing lenders and find a partner that truly understands construction financing.
How we helped
Our Debt Advisory team got to work, using our deep understanding of the industry’s complexities to craft a compelling credit story for Willmott Dixon.
We strategically targeted lenders who understood construction—specialist players. Our broad network and sector know-how meant we weren’t just connecting dots; we were building bridges.
The results
Wilmott Dixon received multiple credit-approved offers, and with our guidance, proceeded with the most suitable option for their growth strategy.
The increased revolving credit facility doesn't just enhance Willmott Dixon’s financial capacity, but should also reinforce confidence across their supply chain and broader stakeholder network.
In a sector where relationships and reliability are paramount, this strengthened facility underlines their financial resilience.
