PA Jewellery now majority-owned by an Employee Ownership Trust

13th February 2019

PA Jewellery are pleased to announce that from 2nd October 2018 the company is now majority-owned by an Employee Ownership Trust.

The news follows the sad loss of PA's founder Michael (Mike) Marsh in February 2018. Creation of the Employee Ownership Trust was an important part of Mike's vision for the future of the company and it was an idea close to his heart. The project begun by him has now been brought to completion by the company's directors. Managing Director Ian Cookson, who has himself worked for the company for nearly 25 years, said that the directors -are thrilled to be able to make Mike's wishes a reality and pursue the future course that he was so keen to follow. PA Jewellery has been established in Walkley, Sheffield for over forty years, its Old Bank showroom being a familiar part of the local landscape. It is staffed by a long-standing and committed team, most of whom have been employed there for more than ten years. Cookson further stated that the new structure -secures the future of the business and allows our loyal and valued team to create and share in its future success. The Employee Ownership Trust arrangement is the perfect fit for our business and means it can continue to thrive and move forward as it has over the last four decades For more information, please visit: https://www.pajewellery.com/
