About Mark Colling

Mark Colling specialises in selling companies to both corporate and private equity buyers, as well as advising on management buyouts and acquisitions. He has worked across a wide variety of sectors, with a focus on logistics, passenger transport and business services.

Mark has two sport-mad boys and is a keen golfer, although he doesn’t get to watch Plymouth Argyle live as much as he once did. Mark is still trying to work out how he ended up running youth cricket teams despite having precisely zero practical experience to draw on!

Mark says, 'I enjoy working with owner managers to help them realise the value of their hard work. I love helping management buyout teams set out on that journey.'

Favourite thing about RSM

'The people, both colleagues and clients. The firm has a culture where everyone is looking to provide the support and encouragement to push each other to achieve their potential. Within M&A, our clients are typically making life-changing decisions and so you build strong relationships with them as you work together.'
