Our client is a premier, highly respected independent firm of Chartered Accountants and Business Advisors operating across the Leeds area. With a proud 30-year legacy, they offer a rare combination: the personal, collaborative culture of an independent practice paired with the technical depth and high-caliber corporate client base typically found in top-tier accounting firms.
