Manchester investment company Blackmore acquires new city centre base

Investment firm The Blackmore Group has relocated to a new HQ in central Manchester to accommodate its growing team.

The company moved from Albion Wharf to the 15,000 sq ft 2 Mount Street, a listed building run by Headspace Group as an office, co-working and events hub.

Blackmore has taken space on the property’s fourth floor, which provides capacity for the firm to expand its team as its business grows.

Phillip Nunn, CEO of Blackmore, is based at the new office along with four other directors and 10 admin and support staff.

Phillip established Blackmore alongside business partner Patrick McCreesh in 2013. The pair have used their combined 25 years of experience in financial services to transform the company into a business with £30m of assets under management.

Commenting on the move, Phillip said: “Our new premises give us the scope to accommodate further growth for The Blackmore Group and will enable us to develop relationships with other businesses through the collaboration space provided by Headspace, which is great for networking and events, with a push on technology and innovation.

“This environment fits well with our own forward-thinking ethos and ambitions as we develop our brand and provide impetus to the Northern Powerhouse through our investments.”

He added: “These are exciting times for The Blackmore Group as we seek investment opportunities in up-and- coming businesses with a focus on property, renewable energy and financial technology.”

Blackmore offers various investment products across multiple asset classes aimed at both individuals and institutions in the UK and abroad, with a focus on medium- to long-term investments in traditional funds, equities, private equity, property and renewable energy.

Investment partnership LJ Group is the owner of 2 Mount Street.
