RMT Accountants and Business Advisers has announced that it is set to open a new office in Hexham town centre, increasing its investment into West Northumberland.
The Newcastle-headquartered firm is set to open a new office on Gilesgate as it looks to further increase its local client base.
RMT will be retaining its existing offices at Hexham Mart, and as part of its local investment.
Stephen Slater, managing director at RMT Accountants, said: “We believe it’s important for us to be part of the community that we’re serving and to have a first-hand understanding of the opportunities, challenges and issues facing local business owners and managers.
“With one well-known national accountancy firm recently choosing to close its Hexham office, we’re now taking the opposite approach and opening in a second location to ensure we have the extra office space available that we believe we’re going to need.”
He added: “Our existing Hexham team is highly skilled and extremely knowledgeable, and we’re expecting to see it grow in the coming months to support our local development plans. The specific SME focus that being part of the Sumer Group provides adds an extra dimension to the full range of services we can offer to local businesses and we’re excited about the impact that this investment will have on both their and our operations.”
RMT is a member of the Sumer Group, which employs over 2,200 staff across more than 40 offices in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
