  • We have relied on Indigo’s advice and service for manly years and found it to be invaluable.
    Indigo provided a superb service we could never emulate in house as they are always aware of the latest legislation and never afraid to speak up if they believe we need to take some action we would not have otherwise considered.
    Many times they have warned us of potholes ahead as well as providing accurate and helpful summaries of decisions made to the Board.
    Lord Leigh of Hurley, Manolete Partners PLC
  • At Southend United FC, we’ve been proud to partner with Indigo Independent Governance as part of our commitment to stronger, more transparent governance. Their early support was instrumental in establishing our first ever Fan Advisory Board, reviewing our governance structures, and beginning preparations for the likely requirements of a future Independent Football Regulator.
    What’s impressed us most is Indigo’s ability to work seamlessly across the boardroom, staff and supporter base — acting as a unifying partner and helping to embed a shared governance culture across the club. We’re proud to recognise them as our inaugural Good Governance Partner.
    Justin Rees, Southend United FC
  • Indigo consistently provides us with excellent support. We are confident in their advice (which they give us when asked or when they think they should be asked) and we are confident that we can trust their judgement on company secretary and governance matters.
    Hilary Eastman, CFA Society of the UK
  • Since we engaged Bernadette and her team at Indigo, we have had a seamless service and a glitch free secretarial support.
    Robert Macdonald, Director, Macdonald and Co
  • I would not hesitate to recommend Indigo to anyone with executive remuneration or other governance responsibilities. The breadth and depth of their knowledge make them highly valued partners.
    Helen Jones, Remuneration Committee Chair, Virgin Wines
  • As a Board Chair, I’ve come to appreciate that a good Company Secretary adds massively to the effectiveness of a Board.
    When taking the role as Chair of the SCS JV Board, we had some issues around CoSec support in the early days, but Indigo’s appointment 15 months ago has had a hugely significant impact, in fact, I think it has been a critical factor in the JVB being such a world class Board.
    Gareth Chick, Chair, SCS JV Board
  • The Indigo team provide the board of lpeco Holdings Ltd with exceptional support and welcome advice.
    They are highly organised, proficient and effective when it comes to the routine matters of board meetings, minutes and various filings. Contributions to the board are always constructive and are often very helpful.
    Steve Johnson, CEO, Ipeco Holdings
  • Indigo has consistently delivered us high standards. They are knowledgeable and always fast to respond. Equally importantly, they take initiative in both highlighting actions that need to be taken and in working with our other advisors to make sure all areas are covered.
    We have provided them with a number of unique situations, including a complicated purchase and unwind. Throughout, they have helped to guide us through challenging circumstances. Moreover, they are a pleasure to work with.
    Paul Hodgins, Director, Silverwood Brands
  • Indigo have been 7IM’s Company Secretary for the last few years. They are an excellent choice and provide us with reliable and efficient services at all times.
    They have been a great partner to 7IM on our growth journey and, as well as being very flexible in their approach, have provided an excellent service in a high growth, high change environment.
    Duncan Walker, CFO, 7IM

The whole team at Indigo always go above and beyond to ensure that our company remains compliant with UK regulations and requirements.

    Manolete Partners PLC
  • We have been very impressed with the service provided by Indigo. The quality of support provided is excellent and the ability to call on a wider team enables us to manage through peaks of demand and provides access to a much broader range of experience than we were previously able to. I would highly recommend Indigo to others.
    Katy Wilde, HR Director, PayPoint PLC
