Adams’ background lies within B2B service provision where he had many senior management roles in both sales and operations. In 2006 he headed up the UK M & A division of UTC Fire & Security and lead the commercial team in a £50m+ acquisition of a market leading fire suppression systems business.

A year later he started his own data destruction business with three partners which they scaled to one of the largest independent UK businesses in that sector. He worked with ECBS over a number of years before finally selling that business in 2025 via EvolutionCBS.

“Between us, we had pretty comprehensive experience of building, buying & integrating businesses but we definitely wouldn’t have been able to complete our own sales process so effectively without EvolutionCBS. We had been approached before we engaged EvolutionCBS, but what really opened our eyes, once we did, is the myriad of potential investors & deal structures that exist. Their network of these potential investors is extensive and that drives competitive tension & enhances deal values.”

Having experienced first-hand the quality and professionalism of the Evolution team, I was delighted to join their team and help others complete the journey as I did.
