Who we are
Long-Term, Operator-Led
We are an operator-led investment firm focused on acquiring and leading a single UK business within the healthcare and aesthetics ecosystem.
Our approach is centred on long-term ownership, hands-on leadership and genuine partnership. Unlike traditional financial buyers, we are not pursuing a portfolio strategy or a short-term exit. Our full time, capital and attention will be dedicated to one business, supporting continuity while investing in its next stage of sustainable growth.
We believe a successful transition starts with understanding what already makes a business special. Our aim is to preserve its people, culture, customer relationships and reputation, while providing the leadership and resources needed for the next chapter.

Meet the Founder
Oscar Tan
Oscar is a hands-on operator with over a decade of experience building, acquiring and leading service-led businesses across the healthcare, aesthetics and wellness sectors. He began his first business at 18 and has since built and operated businesses across clinics, wellness and healthcare-related services, developing a strong track record in scaling operations, building management teams and driving sustainable long-term growth.
Having built a team of 35 people, personally hiring and developing every member, Oscar brings a practical, owner-operator perspective shaped by direct experience across operations, customer experience, acquisitions and business development.
Alongside his operating experience, he holds an MBA from the University of Cambridge, Judge Business School, and previously studied Computer Science at the University of Bath and Business Management at the University of York.

-
Led hiring, supplier relationships, pricing, customer experience, and operational decision making with full responsibility for day to day business performance.

Recruited, trained, and managed team of 35 people, with a strong focus on retention, accountability, service quality, and workplace culture.

-
Practical understanding of clinic operations, supplier dynamics, customer behaviour and service delivery across the healthcare and aesthetics ecosystem.

Our Approach
A Partnership Built on Trust and Alignment
Selling a business is more than a financial decision. It is about trust, continuity and finding the right person to carry it forward.
As an operator with direct experience building and running businesses, Oscar understands both the practical and personal considerations involved in a transition. We recognise the years of effort behind every business and the importance of protecting the people, culture, customer relationships and reputation that make it successful.
Our approach is centred on open communication, alignment and a thoughtful handover. We work closely with owners to understand what matters most to them, preserve what has already been built and provide the leadership and support needed for the next chapter of growth.
