Ceradas is a niche independent business. We work with a wide range of business structures across a variety of industry sectors, from quoted public company boards in the UK and overseas to small privately owned companies as they move through different stages of growth.
Over 30 years of listed company boardroom and governance experience, combined with a successful track record in establishing, building and divesting businesses, means a unique range of perspectives are brought to all our services. These are further enhanced by regularly collaborating with experienced colleagues and networks of governance professionals to gain insight.
Projects are treated as discrete exercises, not as a precursor for ongoing work, which reinforces our independence and impartiality.
Ceradas has a proven track record built on a pragmatism and and flexibility. Our approach is primarily qualitative which allows our reviews to be more forward-looking, in-depth and focused.
Ceradas is a founder member of The Board Effectiveness Guild, a group of experienced and independent board evaluators who enhance the value of board effectiveness reviews by sharing best practice and contributing to the wider debate on excellence in corporate governance.
We provide a range of knowledge resources to help directors and secretariats focus on how governance works in practice. These resources may be provided through one-to-one mentoring, bespoke training and board briefings, as well as a regular knowledge-based development programme for company secretarial teams.
Drawing on over 30 years’ of experience governance experience working with quoted companies in different sectors, we are able support the client journey through a broad range of discrete governance projects. These include corporate governance reviews and improvement projects, advice and governance support linked to events such as an IPO, work on governance policies and procedures, governance reporting and secretariat team reviews.
Ceradas provides mentoring services to start-up and new companies to help them develop their governance and business structures to consolidate growth and move towards maturity.
Our values underpin the services we offer and reflect our belief as to how business should conduct themselves. We place great emphasis on:
Flexibility – listening to clients and being adaptable in responding to them
Pragmatism - using our experience to add both value and relevance in our assessments and recommendations
Understanding – using emotional intelligence to understand what is happening beneath the surface and respond appropriately
Integrity – being open, honest, respectful and consistent in our dealings with everyone
