Oxfordshire-based Evenlode Investment Management is an employee-owned business in the investment sector. The organisation sees itself as the bridge between clients' savings and the companies in which it invests.
Evenlode says it is in the business of ideas and views intellectual curiosity, a willingness to develop new ideas and the free flow of information across the team as crucial to its success and its aim of nurturing a collaborative culture.
It offers flexible working, a generous benefits package and a graduate trainee scheme to reinforce this. Evenlode Investment Management has started a foundation working with local charities, building long-term partnerships in its community. The foundation is at the very essence of our purpose as a company, and additionally, it has launched a charitable division to help address global problems in areas such as nature, inequality, science, education, and sustainability.
Evenlode Investment Management focus on the sustainable growth of its investors’ assets but also empowers our people to engage, collaborate, and improve outcomes for the wider community. It fundamentally believes investment can be a positive agent of change," says portfolio manager, Ben Peters.
Based in a converted barn just outside Chipping Norton, employee-owned Evenlode has grown from a start-up managing less than £1m of assets to a team of 30+ talented and motivated staff looking after £5 billion of client money. The company invests in the shares of high-quality companies over the long term, on behalf of individual and institutional clients.

It also has a graduate scheme in place for investment analysts, who all start on the same salary and have the same increases year on year as their experience grows.

Evenlode has set up the Evenlode Foundation, which allocates up to 20% of profit each year. This money goes towards charities and early-stage investments.

At Evenlode, through our employee ownership trust structure, we own the business collectively as a team and therefore have the freedom to set our own long-term plans. Our aim is to deliver an excellent, consistent service to our clients by working collaboratively in an enjoyable environment that offers a shared sense of purpose and great opportunities for everyone to learn and develop new skills. We are very proud of our Best Companies achievement, which we think helps to demonstrate the benefits of this employee ownership approach.
