PKF Francis Clark has opened a new office in Southampton, located on Southampton Science Park.
It marks the ninth location for the firm, whose office network includes sites in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, Bristol and now Hampshire.
The firm has 55 partners and over 800 members of staff, with annual revenue of £52m, and will now be “actively recruiting” in the Southampton area to meet the demand it is seeing for its services.
Corporate finance partner Paul Stout said: “We already provide corporate finance, audit and specialist tax work for our clients in the Hampshire area, so establishing a permanent presence here is a natural extension of our activities.
“Hampshire and the M3 corridor is a thriving commercial area and, despite the wider economic uncertainty, demand for our services has never been higher.”
He added: “We have proven that the PKF Francis Clark brand has penetrated the market in this area, combining a personal approach with the depth of expertise of a much larger firm.
“With its cluster of innovative start-ups and leading technology businesses, Southampton Science Park is the perfect location for us, and we look forward to helping ambitious businesses both here and across the region to achieve their growth plans.”
