A positive vibe in our office

Posted by Wellden User

Monday mornings are not always viewed in a positive light, but that certainly was not the case this morning in our Cobham office.

There was a real buzz today as staff from Alan James & Co joined Wellden Turnbull as part of our ongoing expansion. The office certainly seemed busier than usual, with the new staff members getting to know to their new Wellden Turnbull colleagues.

It’s really positive to know that both practices share the same philosophies in terms of establishing strong relationships with individual and business clients, so Alan James & Co joining our team is a natural fit. This expansion for Wellden Turnbull is an exciting new development, and consolidates our place as a Top 100 Accountancy practice.

One of our Partners, Simon Spevack said “We are very pleased that Alan James, his colleagues and clients are joining us at an exciting time for our practice. Just like Alan’s own philosophy, the relationship and trust we develop with both our personal and business clients is very important to us. After several meetings with Alan James we decided that this development would be of mutual benefit, and allow us to continue to deliver the highest level of client service. This acquisition will also allow Wellden Turnbull to strengthen its position in the local area, as well as consolidating our position as a leading accountancy practice.”

Alan James added ““I have been looking for some time to join the practice with another, larger, partnership in the area, in order to bring the benefits of scale to my clients, and my team of staff. I am very excited to have found what I believe is our ideal partner in Wellden Turnbull”.

We are looking forward to working together, and we all feel that we’ll continue to go from strength to strength as a larger practice.

 

 

 

Growth top of the agenda for SMEs

Posted by Wellden User

According to research from Close Brothers Asset Finance, growing a business is top of the agenda for 34 per cent of SMEs.

The quarterly survey of UK SME owners and senior management from a range of sectors also revealed that more than half of firms have already experienced growth in the last 12 months, while a further 37 per cent expect their business to expand during the next year.

The results also highlighted that a significant number of firms are planning to recruit, with 43 per cent hoping to take on new staff within the next year.

Simon added: “Naturally, firms need to expand their team as they grow organically but the challenge often lies in how they manage this growth. It’s important that firms seek professional advice to help with obtaining funding.

“I would urge any business owners looking at expanding to ensure that they assess their plans and evaluate all of the financial options available to help them find an appropriate solution to fit their needs. At Wellden Turnbull my team and I can assist with a range of issues affecting SMEs and we can also handle the payroll. This allows SME owners to get back to doing what they do best; running their business and growing their enterprise.”
