About Moorgate Management

We are a building materials consultancy and service provider to the Builders’ Merchants Federation, with decades of hands-on experience in building materials distribution. We have successfully owned, led, grown, adapted and turned around regional, independent and national merchant businesses.

Our experience includes working with timber, lightside and heavyside businesses, as well as completing successful acquistions, integrations and branch openings, and we share this experience with our clients. We help owners of merchants, distributors, suppliers and buying groups to grow, adapt or turnaround their business, and do this by taking the time to listen and understand to exactly what they want to achieve.

We give practical help and advice to identify the right strategic and operational solutions to solve their business challenges. We then work as part of their team, as much or as little as they require, to help them successfully complete their objectives.

Company culture

Our business was founded on the basis that people but from people, and that to do this, you need to earn their trust and respect.

Our core values are the moral and ethical compass that guides our behaviour and are aligned to this:

• Integrity – in what we say and what we do;
• Loyalty – to our colleagues, our customers and our suppliers; and
• Positivity – towards our work, our integartions and towards our goal.

These values are embodied within our company’s customer centric culture as our values drive our behaviours.

By the nature of the work that we undertake, helping owners across the UK and Ireland to grow, adapt or turnaround their business, we deliver our solutions at our clients premises and as such, all our iterations are driven by our values. Inherent in he work we undertake is offering advice and as such, we also offer mentorship to our clients and their teams as part of the value offering we provide. This is the same with our colleagues within our business.

Employee benefits and perks

Our employee remuneration is designed to attract and retain valued members to our team, and professional development is an important part of this, as it is inherent in the value of the strategic and operational solutions we offer our clients.

Career development and growth

Career development is a core driver in our business, and as part of their onboarding plans, all new colleagues will spend time across all parts of our business so they understand the role they play, as well as their colleagues in delivering solutions to our clients.

Each colleague is given a training partner and a training plan is created for each colleague, with clear milestones and objectives – the aim being to ensure each member of our business can grow and develop to support our clients.

EquALity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) initiatives

Our business is committed to providing and promoting a diverse and inclusive environment for our colleagues, and our ED&I (Equality, Diversity and Inclusion) policies reflect this. We therefore work to attract and retain individuals who reflect the marketplace and communities that our clients represent.

Sustainability/environmental stewardship

Sustainability is a core tenant of our own ESG (Environmental, Sustainable and Governmental) policy, as well as being a core offering to our clients. We are committed to the Construction Leadership Council’s C02nstruct Zero pledge and, as such, our policies promote resource efficiency across our business, together with measures to reduce carbon emissions. We are an active advocate and participant of the Builders’ Merchant Federation Sustainability Working Group, to help not only our business, but that of our clients to achieve their net zero aims.
