Our story, our people

Black Mountain began by supplying benefits administration for one global investment bank back in 1996.

When our chairman, Graham Corner bought Black Mountain in 2005, we began to broaden our services, starting with payroll. As clients asked for help with other areas of their business, those conversations shaped new services, from HR to insurance broking and company administration. Each step meant learning and bringing in the right expertise.

That same approach guides us today. We listen to the businesses we work with, tailoring our support and developing new offerings around what they need. As your business evolves, we adapt with you.

A message from Graham Corner

We want to deliver a gold-standard service at a reasonable price. For me, that isn’t about finding the cheapest way to do things. It’s about knowledgeable people who understand our clients’ markets and are there when they need support.


That starts with looking after our own people. I want our teams to feel supported and empowered, with everything they need to do their jobs well. They’re the people behind the service, and investing in them matters.


Our clients value being able to get hold of someone quickly and to be able to have a conversation. As we grow, I don’t want us to lose that. Local understanding and person contact should remain at the heart of what we do.


As our clients change, we try and change with them. That’s how I want Black Mountain to keep growing: moving forward without losing the personal service that matters to clients.
