Milsted Langdon co-founder to retire

Milsted Langdon has announced that its co-founder Jonathan Langdon will retire after 30 years at the helm.

The firm originally started out with just one office and has since grown to have offices in Bath, Bristol, Taunton, Yeovil and London, with 200 employees spanning across the sites.

While at its founding the firm mainly concentrated on the needs of local businesses, it has since diversified into many areas, such as insolvency and business restructuring, corporate finance and forensic accountancy, it now works with a national and international client base.

Langdon said: “I feel very proud to have played a role in the growth of the practice, guiding it over the years to become such a well-regarded firm.

“While I am sad to be retiring, I am glad to see that Milsted Langdon continues to grow and thrive, even with the recent challenges that we have faced. I would like to thank my fellow partners, our staff, local contacts and clients for the support they have shown me over the years.”

Tim Close, chair of Milsted Langdon, added: “Jonathan has played an immensely influential role in the accountancy profession and within the local economy of the South West.

“His commitment to clients and their success has been incredible throughout his career and the firm that he has helped to create continues to play an important role locally, nationally and internationally. “We are all very thankful for the opportunities that he has offered us and want to wish him the best as he begins his hard-earned retirement.”
