In the Summer of 2024 Langricks completed on the acquisition of fellow Holmfirth-based accountancy practice Balance. \u00a0This move has significantly increased the size of the Langricks\u2019 business, taking the headcount to over 45 and will add key accounting expertise to its existing compliance and advisory services.<\/p>\n
It represents a significant milestone in the company\u2019s growth strategy whilst allowing the combined client base to leverage the expertise within the three offices and their specialisms, such as Trust tax and Vendor Assist\/Mergers & Acquisitions.<\/p>\n
Both the founder of Balance Ashley Barrowclough and the Managing Director of Langricks, Chris Langrick are Huddersfield born and bred and the acquisition is a natural move as Ashley looks towards his retirement.<\/p>\n
It also provides additional opportunity for the new team, to develop their career path all the way to Director level if that is their chore ambition.<\/p>\n
Commenting on the deal Chris Langrick said:<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe have been in talks with Ashley for a number of years as he was searching for a local firm that would continue to serve his long-standing and loyal clients with the same dedication and work ethic as that of Balance, with their close proximity it was a natural fit for the 2 practices to come together\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\n
Ashley will continue to manage Balance for the immediate future and there will be a slow and steady integration into the Langricks team.<\/p>\n
On the acquisition Ashley said:<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI am delighted to be able to present a more rounded offering to our client base with the extra tax, m & a and wealth management departments that come with Langricks, and I feel really positive for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Chris Langrick was keen to stress that it would be very much business as usual in Holmfirth. \u201cWe will be continuing to provide the quality of service expected of us across the client base and we remain very focused on staff development.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
