People
We are proud to have a team of highly skilled and dedicated professionals who are committed to providing exceptional service to our clients
Our team is composed of individuals from diverse backgrounds, a wide range of expertise from a variety of fields.
Before the creation of Revilo Capital in September 2014, Lee owned another successful group of businesses which he sold to a UK PLC in May 2014 and retired aged 46. So, ensued a not so successful retirement, lasting only 69 days, before the responsibilities and thrill of business life meant that he just couldn’t stay away.
Lee started Revilo Capital from a small one-man office, armed with his phone, a laptop and so began the inception of Revilo Group – we are always asked where the name Revilo came from….it is the reverse spelling of the name of Lee’s eldest son, Oliver, who now works within the Group.
Indeed, it’s fair to say that the success of the Group owes as much to Lee’s drive and determination and he’s showing no signs of slowing down
I'm proud to be extremely hands on in all aspects of the business. I'm regularly involved because I'm passionate about the fundamentals of client service. I believe I'm highly driven naturally, creative, ambitious and generous with others.

Darren Clawson was heading up his own local firm when he responded to a social media business post from Chief Executive Lee Collins.
Having been impressed by Darren’s professional response to the post Lee commissioned a new project that was delivered on time, on budget and to an impeccable standard.
We believe in rewarding loyal hard-working individuals and offered Darren an opportunity to complete other property refurbishments. A potential business venture could be discussed and this led to the action of Revilo Capital buying up land in Todmorden with the building of three townhouses. Darren once again exceeded expectations, Revilo Developments was born.
