“Turning equity into empowerment—ESOPs built for growth.”

Ownership is empowering. At William Radcliffe, we specialize in Employee Share Ownership Plans (ESOPs) and Community Trusts—from establishment to administration and winding up. Our end-to-end services ensure governance, compliance, and clarity for all stakeholders.

ESOPs aren’t just about shares—they’re about commitment, alignment, growth, and joint success with your employees.

Let’s start the conversation today.

Trustees and directors are held to a high standard. But who ensures they’re supported, trained, and compensated fairly?

That’s where our benchmarking survey comes in.
We provide market-based insight into how trustees and directors are being remunerated by scheme type, geography, and size.

Clarity begins with data.

Too many organisations set up a scheme… then move on.

But these structures require maintenance, communication, and continuous oversight to remain compliant and impactful.

🔹 Company Secretarial
🔹 Financial Management
🔹 Trustee Training
🔹 Stakeholder Communication
🔹 Scheme Winding Down

Don’t let your scheme fall behind.

If your scheme was created 5+ years ago, when was the last time it was reviewed?

Legacy schemes often carry:
⚠️ Outdated legal frameworks
⚠️ Untrained trustees
⚠️ Missing compliance records
⚠️ Inactive beneficiary tracking

We help clean up legacy schemes and bring them into full compliance.

We often meet well-intentioned trustees who feel overwhelmed by scheme governance and financial reporting.

That’s why we provide clear training on:
✔️ Legal responsibilities
✔️ Financial oversight
✔️ Risk management
✔️ Reading financials and audit reports

You don’t have to be an expert but you do need a partner who is.

When your empowerment scheme reaches maturity, are you prepared to wind it down?

We support clients with:
📁 Final financial statements
📤 Distribution planning and notices
🧾 Tax closure and compliance
📜 Board and beneficiary reporting

Let’s close your scheme with the same clarity it was built with.

Yes, your scheme needs compliant financial reports.
But financials are also how boards make decisions, and how beneficiaries trust outcomes.

Our financial reporting helps:
📊 Trustees understand scheme performance
📈 Boards budget and forecast effectively
📤 Audits run smoother

Numbers don’t just comply, they communicate. Let’s make yours clear.

A scheme register should be more than just a formality. It should be:
✔️ Accurate
✔️ Up to date
✔️ Audit-ready
✔️ Aligned with payouts and vesting

If your register hasn’t been updated or reconciled in months (or years), we can help.

Good records protect everyone involved.

Many empowerment schemes go years without an audit not out of neglect, but because admin slips through the cracks.

We’ve helped several Trusts:
✅ Catch up on outstanding audits
✅ Prepare complete financial packs
✅ Liaise directly with auditors
✅ Present financials to boards and beneficiaries

It’s never too late to get your house in order.

Empowerment schemes affect more than just the company empowerment targets, they touch employees, communities and future stakeholders.

That’s why our communication services are designed for:
✔️ Trustees
✔️ Regulators
✔️ Beneficiaries
✔️ Company leadership
✔️ The public

Because good governance is only effective when it’s well understood.
