Steve Middleton, Director, M&G Fire Protection

M&G Fire Protection provides comprehensive fire safety solutions across Essex and London. Their services include the design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of: 

  • Fire detection and suppression systems
  • AOV (automatic opening vent) systems
  • Fire extinguishers
  • Nationwide supply of dampers

M&G is known for quality delivery, technical reliability, and commitment to safety across commercial and residential environments.

The company had achieved strong growth—but to reach the next level, it needed to evolve. M&G recognised the need to:

  • Shift its organisational structure
  • Refine and scale internal processes
  • Align leadership behaviours with a growth-stage business

They turned to Rathbone Results for support in managing this transition with clarity, pace, and experience.

The Challenge

We faced many common, yet critical challenges that hindered growth and long-term success. These included:

  • Difficulty carving out time to focus on transformation amidst day-to-day operational pressures
  • Lack of clarity on which areas most needed development 
  • No structured plan to elevate the management team or embed scalable systems
