New appointment at Key
We are thrilled to welcome Ben Jones to the team as a Director. His arrival is a pivotal moment for Key Capital Partners and underscores our commitment to building strong relationships with business founders across the UK.
After several years working across the investment landscape, I’m excited to return to the lower mid-market, a space where I believe relationships matter most and where private equity can have a truly transformative impact. In my role at Key, I’ll be leading on deal origination, working closely with business owners, advisors, and intermediaries to identify strong, scalable businesses where we can add real value as a partner.

In his new role, he will be responsible for leading deal origination, focusing on identifying high-growth businesses and forging strong relationships with owners, founders, advisors, and intermediaries.
