This strategic move reflects our commitment to expanding our team, building bench strength, and delivering exceptional value to clients.

Over the past seven years, Mark Brooks has been instrumental in growing our Corporate Finance Team at Rickard Luckin. Having dedicated 21 years to the firm, Mark has overseen significant growth and evolved our services from general deal support to a comprehensive, full-service offering. Mark stepped into his current role after working alongside David Enser before David’s retirement in 2020, ensuring a seamless transition and continued success.

Rickard Luckin will work in partnership with Mark, who will lead Attain Corporate Finance LLP. The entire existing Corporate Finance Team have moved across to Attain, ensuring continuity of expertise and service for clients.

Kate Bell, Managing Director at Rickard Luckin, said:

“This strategic decision to move our Corporate Finance service offering and team into a new business builds on the tremendous success that Mark Brooks and his team have had to date.  Whether a client is looking to find a buyer for their business, acquire another business, understand the value of their business today or is considering their options for the future, they will have access to the full suite of Corporate Finance services provided by a first-class team.  The Attain team will very much continue to be part of the RL family and we are excited to support them all in this next stage of their team journey.”

Now stepping into his role as Corporate Finance Director at Attain Corporate Finance LLP, Mark commented:

“The creation of Attain Corporate Finance LLP marks an exciting new chapter for us. It is also a chance to reflect on the journey myself and my team have been on with great pride in the service we have delivered our clients, and the culture we have built. This spurs us on to further build on the strong foundations we’ve established at Rickard Luckin and create a platform that allows us to grow, innovate, and deliver even greater value to our clients.”

James Boustead, Director and Head of Corporate Services at Rickard Luckin, added:

“For the past two years I’ve had the pleasure of representing the Corporate Finance Team (as well as the Corporate Tax and Company Secretarial Teams) at Board level within our firm, and in doing so have worked even more closely with Mark and his fantastic team. As a firm we are determined to back this team and support its growth, both in terms of the amount of work it can handle, and the types of services it can offer to our clients. We are confident this joint venture structure will enable us to continue our strong collaboration while taking the proposition and team depth to another level.”
