A NORTH Yorkshire tax specialist has expanded after opening an office in London.
Two former tax inspectors Gary Brothers and Stephen Outhwaite, who launched Independent Tax & Forensic Services LLP in Harrogate 18 months ago, before opening a base in Hull, have expanded to a new location in the heart of the capital, on Broadstone Place, just off Baker Street.
The pair, who both held senior positions within HMRC before joining an international accountancy firm, have taken this step in order to service a growing number of clients based in London and the south.
Since its launch the firm now boasts a portfolio of more than 120 clients, including well-known names from the world of sport and entertainment.
Mr Brothers said: “When we started our business we may have had no clients, but what we did have was plenty of contacts and optimism. Our journey so far has surpassed both our expectations.
“Because more than 60 per cent of our clients are located in the south of the country, opening a London office has become a necessity."
