Our Employee Ownership Trust
At Clean Digital, we've transitioned to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) model, putting our business in the hands of those who make it successful. This approach aligns our interests with yours, ensuring we're focused on delivering long-term value rather than short-term gains.
"An Employee Ownership Trust is right for us because it embodies our company culture; one where we all feel responsible for the business' performance and success." — Rory Young, Managing Director
Our Team, Our Owners
At Clean Digital, we're not just colleagues – we're co-owners, working together to deliver exceptional results for our clients.
The Clean Digital Team
How Does It Work?
Employee Ownership is a structure aimed at driving exceptional growth while fostering a work environment where employees have a stake in the company's success.
Here's the approach we've taken at Clean Digital:
Employee Ownership Trust
Rory has transferred 100% of his shares to an 'Employee Ownership Trust', which now holds these shares on behalf of all employees.
Company Structure
Clean Digital continues to operate as normal, with the Trust as the majority owner rather than an individual shareholder.
Employee Benefits
All employees benefit from the Trust, with company profits being distributed according to the Trust's rules for the benefit of everyone.
Governance Balance
While the leadership team manages day-to-day operations, major decisions that affect company profits require Trust approval, ensuring employee interests are protected.
