Reputation and communications consultancy Headland has acquired Bladonmore<\/a>, the international digital, brand and content business, to expand its client offer and international footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bladonmore helps listed businesses, multinationals and private capital firms engage stakeholders through digital, content, coaching, campaigns and wider advisory services. It supports on high stakes moments \u2013 including financial results, investor days, transactions and crises \u2013 as well as brand repositioning and business transformation. With a 50-strong team based in London and New York, the firm has an enviable roster of clients across the US, UK, Europe and the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The acquisition equips Headland to support clients with a far broader offer, and across more markets, as senior leaders navigate an increasingly complex picture of stakeholder relationships and scrutiny, and a constantly evolving media and digital landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bladonmore\u2019s talented team of strategists, developers, designers and filmmakers are already trusted by clients including Bridgepoint, London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), Philips, and Stonepeak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bladonmore will remain a separate business with its own compelling offer, brand identity and management team led by CEO, Richard Carpenter, and Founder and Chair, Richard Rivlin. The two businesses will work in partnership to serve clients, building on Headland\u2019s uniquely collaborative culture and unrivalled experience in successfully blending offers and specialist skills on behalf of clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dan Mines, CEO of Headland,<\/strong> said: \u201cOur vision is to build on our reputation, offer and collaborative culture, to become the driving force behind a broader, international reputation and communications advisory business. Welcoming Bladonmore to the Headland fold is a big step towards that vision. Its market-leading digital, brand, content, campaigning and coaching expertise gives us the firepower to support clients with wider reputational challenges and opportunities and help engage and influence stakeholders in new and different ways.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Richard Carpenter, CEO of Bladonmore, <\/strong>said: \u201cBladonmore\u2019s success comes from our deep understanding of what matters to clients as they tell their stories to key stakeholders across multiple channels. We want to build on that success. Joining forces with Headland will support that goal \u2013 and help its growth, too. Our companies are a fantastic fit \u2013 Bladonmore\u2019s clients will gain access to new services and benefit from an even stronger presence and influence in the market. We\u2019re excited about what lies ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is Headland\u2019s first acquisition since LDC, the leading private equity investor which is part of Lloyds Banking Group, reinvested in the business in October 2024, having first partnered with the firm in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
