A well-established firm of chartered accountants has seen such a
growing demand for its services across Shropshire that it has
opened a dedicated new office in Telford.
Gilbert & Co has just moved into its new base at Telford
Space Centre on the Halesfield Business Park, in an expansion
designed to help the company bring its range of services closer to
its growing client base across the region.
The firm, founded by Brian Gilbert - a chartered accountant with
more than 30 years experience - already has a long-standing
presence in Essington, near Wolverhampton, but has seen a number of
appointments from the thriving SME and start-up business community
in Telford, Shrewsbury and the rest of the county. "Shropshire is a
real hot-bed for new and growing businesses who are just the sort
of ambitious and exciting companies we are particularly keen to
work alongside," Brian Gilbert, Senior Partner of Gilbert & Co,
explained.
"Our hands-on approach to supporting SMEs and start-ups has
resulted in sustained growth at our Wolverhampton office, and with
our client base across Shropshire having expanded at a rapid rate
during recent months, we felt the time was right to invest further
in the county and open our dedicated new office in Telford. It also
allowed us to tap into some of the great accounting talent in the
county, and we're looking forward to further growing our team as
our new base becomes even more established."
The company provides a comprehensive range of services,
including accountancy, company formation, business planning,
banking consultancy and taxation advice. As well as developing
significant expertise of working specifically with SMEs and
start-up businesses over the past 25 years, the firm also
specialises in working with the construction and healthcare
sectors.
"With the current challenging economic circumstances there can
be something of a reluctance from some finance professionals to
support new and start-up enterprises, but we believe passionately
that it's companies like these that are the backbone of our economy
and so we're keen to do whatever we can to help them to thrive and
prosper," Brian added.
