A Yorkshire accountancy firm is set to accelerate its growth after acquiring a new headquarters in Cleckheaton, following a six-figure cash injection from Lloyds Bank.
Shenward is a family-run firm that has provided tax and business advice, auditing and HR and payroll services for more than 30 years. As they expanded, the team introduced a series of new professional services specialisms including PR, insurance, brokerage and finance, transforming the firm into a full multidisciplinary practice.
And now, following a series of new client wins, it has opened the doors to its new 8,000 sq ft office in Summit House, at Woodland Park business park.
At four times the size of its previous HQ, the Cleckheaton office provides open plan working spaces, with three bespoke client suites, and virtual office facilities for its international clients and partners.
Purchased with the support of a six-figure loan from Lloyds Bank, the expansion is the largest in the firm’s history.
Sherad Dewedi, managing partner of Shenward, said: “This move is a huge milestone for us, allowing us to capitalise on the strong growth we have already achieved by continuing to recruit the best talent, and enhancing the range of services we can offer to our clients.
“We are committed to growing alongside our clients, working to mirror their ambitions and diversifying our offering to support their needs – and the move to Summit House gives us the tools to do just that.”
