Spill's employee assistance programme (EAP) for private equity & vc
In a ten-person fund, there's nowhere to hide a bad week. Deal cycles run hot, portfolio companies bring their problems to you, and everyone's workload is visible to everyone else. Spill gives investment teams a private pressure valve: same-day therapy sessions with top 5% counsellors, no referral step, nobody at work knowing who's booked. It's £75 a month for the whole team.
Same day counselling sessions
Rolling 30 day contract
Unlimited access from £75 per month
Proudly supporting investment teams across the UK
Small teams, big cheques, constant pressure
Turnover in financial and insurance activities runs at around 27% a year (CIPD / ONS, 2024). In private equity and venture, small teams make that worse: one burnt-out associate is a big share of your capacity, and deal cycles plus portfolio pressure leave little room to recover between sprints.
Widespread burnout
74% of chartered accountants reported some form of burnout in the past year. (caba / ICAEW, 2024)
Depression diagnosed
32% of chartered accountants have been diagnosed with or self-identified depression. (caba, 2024)
Rethinking careers
41% say burnout has made them consider changing careers or leaving the profession. (caba, 2024)
Why funds run Spill
In a small firm, one person struggling changes everything: deal flow, diligence quality, the room's whole mood. Spill keeps your team resourced through fundraises and rough portfolio quarters, and shows founders and LPs you run a serious firm.

Perform under pressure, sustainably
Help your people manage deadline pressure and perfectionism without burning out.
Protect focus and judgement
Clear heads make better decisions for clients, especially in high-stakes weeks.
Reduce quiet absence
Presenteeism and sick days both fall when people have somewhere to take the pressure.
