Harding Green has announced that its ‘partners’ now collectively own 25% of the business, following a recent six-figure transaction with early-stage investors and the repurchase of shares from original investors, further increasing the shares available to them.

Harding Green has redefined all agents as partners to, it says, “better reflect our long-term vision and brand positioning”.

While it continues to operate under consultancy agreements, the company believes that the term partner carries greater significance and aligns with its equity commitments.

The Equity Participation Scheme aims to creates real, long-term benefits for those contributing to Harding Green’s success.

Every partner, and everyone in Harding Green’s operations team, is eligible to hold a stake in the business. Those who have transacted have share options, with the first round maturing in February 2025.

With ambitious plans for the future, Harding Green remains committed to sustainable growth and ensuring its partners are properly rewarded, according to its CEO, Nick Carter.

An agent joining today could own up to 2% of the company within a few years, giving them a meaningful stake in its future.

Carter said: “The Equity Participation Scheme has been a tremendous success. While we could have easily repurchased shares for existing stakeholders, my focus has always been on a long-term vision.

“From the outset, the goal has been to build a business where those contributing to its success are genuinely invested in its future. Together, we are creating something exceptional, and I hope that, in time, we can truly reward those who have helped us get there.”
