MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 01425802, and its current status with Companies House is inactive. The company was incorporated on 5 June 1979 and lists its registered address as BASINGSTOKE, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 6 October 2026.

Shareholders

1

One shareholder is currently on record for MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006.

The largest of these is MACMILLAN LTD, holding 100% — a majority holding.

Because the shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Officers

5

Three of the 5 officer records shown for MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Rachel Jacobs (appointed 2012-02-20) and Simon Cramond (appointed 2014-03-07) both serve as Director; Gordon Langley (appointed 2013-02-08) serves as Company Secretary. The remaining 2 records shown (William Farries and Martin Powter) are former appointments that have since been resigned.

The register reports 26 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED sits 15 levels below its ultimate parent, Georg von Holtzbrinck GmbH & Co.KG, registered in Germany. 8 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 9 jurisdictions. The full chain up to Georg von Holtzbrinck GmbH & Co.KG is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by MACMILLAN EDUCATION LIMITED's own shareholder record. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 8 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Spain, China, Poland, Hong Kong, New Zealand, and 3 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear.
