Our story so far
Ampa started out as an idea to do something different in the legal and professional services market: a House of BrandsTM strategy that meant brands in the group could retain business model autonomy and were empowered to lead their own businesses, but also had the support and backing of something bigger.
Before it had a name it had a set of strong values, a purpose and plan that was set on collaboration, not cost-cutting or consolidation.

Our 2023 Impact Report
Ampa has published its first impact report, recording the wider group’s achievements and progress to date, since the relaunch of its responsible business programme last year. Making more than 30 pledges to its people, planet and local communities, the group has seen significant improvements in its commitment to increasing diversity at a senior level, reducing its carbon footprint and offering career development opportunities to under-represented groups.
Our governance approach
Reflecting the growing maturity of our group, we have evolved our governance approach. Our board makes our strategic decisions for the long-term and is accountable for governance of Ampa. Meanwhile, our exec team overseas the running of our business, with our brand boards empowered to make strategic decisions to the support the growth of their brands.
This devolved, yet joined-up, approach means we have the right people focussed on the right things – ensuring that everything we do is simple, empowered, accountable, transparent and agile.
Purposeful and profitable
Since launching our responsible business programme in 2021, doing what’s right for our people, communities and the environment has become engrained in everyday life at Ampa.
Backed by the board and driven by people of all levels across the brands and group, responsible business is not just a box-ticking exercise, it is who we are and how we do business, proving you can be both purposeful and profitable.
