On 3rd June 2025, Standing on Giants became 100 percent employee owned.This means that all shares in the company are held by an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT). The trust exists to represent the collective interests of everyone who works here, alongside the executive board.
When our founders Robbie and Vincent started Standing on Giants, their goal was to build a different kind of company. One that puts people and communities at the centre. After spending years helping businesses become community powered, we are proud to say the same about ourselves.
We believe in shared responsibility, shared success, and a long-term approach to how we grow. We are joining a growing group of companies that believe in fairer and more inclusive ways of doing business.
Employee ownership means the people who work in a company also have a stake in its future. There are different ways this can happen. Sometimes employees own shares directly. In other cases, a trust holds the shares on their behalf. That is the model we have chosen.
An Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) holds 100 percent of Standing on Giants. This means the company is owned collectively by all employees. The trust helps ensure that the business is run in a way that benefits everyone, not just a few. It supports long-term thinking and shared success.
“Joining the Standing on Giants EOT Trust Board felt like a natural next step: a chance to do good business whilst doing some good. I’ve always been drawn to organisations that blend commercial ambition with community and pride in their work – and Standing on Giants lives and breathes those values. Standing on Giants already has an incredibly strong team. I want to help protect that strength and build on it. I’ve always believed that when you invest in people, you unlock something magic.”
“I’ve been at Standing on Giants for a long time. Becoming employee-owned is a really exciting step in our journey, and being one of the Trustee Directors is a great opportunity to help shape what this means for us. Employee ownership fits what we do so well, and I think we have the potential to go far with this structure. I want to make sure I’m the voice of the employees on the Trustee Board and really represent what my colleagues care about.”
