Mitchell McDermott has secured investment from MML Ireland

Irish construction consultancy Mitchell McDermott has entered into a new partnership with private equity firm MML Ireland in a move designed to accelerate its growth and strengthen its European footprint.

Mitchell McDermott is an Irish headquartered construction consultancy operating primarily in the data center and high-density residential sector. With a team of over 80 employees, the company provides full-service, data-led construction consultancy internationally through their offices in Ireland, Netherlands, Spain and Malaysia.

MML Ireland is a private equity firm supporting Irish SME founders and managers to evolve their businesses organically or through acquisition both domestically and internationally.

Oaklins’ team in Ireland acted as the exclusive M&A advisor to the shareholders of Mitchell McDermott to find the company’s first institutional investor to support a significant growth opportunity across Europe and enable equity participation for the next tier of senior management. The team provided end-to-end support throughout the transaction, identifying and engaging multiple private equity firms and managing a competitive process to select the optimal partner. This transaction aligns with several others that the team has advised on or is currently mandated for within the mission-critical infrastructure sector, particularly involving Irish companies supporting the rollout and construction of data centers across Europe.
