Engagement Model

Working With Stellium

Senior capital markets, investor relations and strategic advisory support for ambitious companies preparing for growth.


Growth companies face a common challenge. They need access to experienced capital markets and strategic advisory expertise, but often lack the scale or justification for a full in-house team.

Stellium acts as an extension of management, providing senior-level support across investor relations, communications, capital markets strategy and growth initiatives.

Our engagement models are designed to provide long-term strategic support rather than transactional project work.

To ensure a high level of service and direct senior involvement, Stellium works with a limited number of retained clients at any one time.


How Engagements Begin

A structured start.
Not a rushed pitch.

01

Initial Discussion

A confidential conversation to understand your objectives, challenges and growth ambitions.

02

Investor-Ready Audit

Where appropriate, we undertake a detailed review of your market positioning, communications and investor engagement strategy.

03

Strategic Roadmap

We identify opportunities, priorities and areas of focus — and agree the scope of ongoing support.

04

Ongoing Partnership

A tailored retained engagement providing ongoing support and strategic advice at a senior level.


Engagement Models

Three levels of retained partnership.

All engagements are retained and structured around your specific objectives. Scope is agreed at the outset and reviewed regularly.


Investment
Retained engagements typically range from £60,000 to £150,000+ per annum, depending on scope, complexity and the level of support required.

We are best suited to ambitious listed and private companies seeking long-term strategic support rather than short-term marketing or communications projects.


Are We The Right Fit?

We are selective about
who we work with.

Stellium is typically engaged by
  • Listed growth companies
  • Pre-IPO businesses
  • Companies preparing for capital raises
  • Management teams seeking institutional investor engagement
  • Boards navigating strategic change
  • Businesses requiring senior expertise without building a large internal team
Generally not the right fit for
  • Start-ups seeking basic marketing support
  • One-off social media projects
  • Companies looking for the lowest-cost provider
  • Organisations seeking purely transactional communications services
  • Businesses without the budget or intent for a serious retained advisory relationship

The First Step

Most engagements begin
with an Investor-Ready Audit.

The audit provides a practical assessment of your investment proposition, market positioning, investor communications, digital presence and readiness for future capital markets activity.

Where a retained engagement follows within 30 days, the audit fee may be credited against the first month's retainer.
