With immediate effect, the former practice of JL Grant & Co. (22 staff), located in Mallusk will be subsumed into PKF-FPM Accountants Limited, one of the leading Island based Accounting and Business Advisory firms, with offices in Belfast, Newry, Dungannon, Mallusk and Dundalk. PKF-FPM is a member of PKF International, one of the top Global Networks of Accountancy Firms.
Both firms have worked closely over these past few months in planning for the business of JL Grant and Co. Accountants to be subsumed into PKF-FPM Accountants Limited. The combined firm will be known as PKF-FPM Accountants Limited and will employ more than 90 people.
JL Grant & Co was a very successful, well established and respected general accountancy and business consultancy practice with additional sector expertise in charities, farming and fishing.
Both practices are very positive about the benefits which the new arrangement will bring to both firms in terms of additional capability to service and support their clients in today’s challenging and ever changing times.
Speaking on the exciting new development PKF-FPM Managing Director Feargal McCormack stated: “Our two firms have respected and known each other for a number of years now. Over time it became clear that we also had similar values and a shared professional ethos in terms of being passionate about helping our clients grow and develop their businesses, understanding the importance of providing a personal service as well as really caring about the career development of our people. We are delighted that Lowry Grant and all his staff will be joining us and that Lowry will become an equity director in PKF-FPM Accountants Limited”.
New PKF-FPM Director, Lowry Grant stated: “By coming together we collectively feel we can offer our clients and our people access to even more expertise and opportunities. Our clients will benefit from having access to an even wider range of services and a more extensive pool of knowledgeable and capable individuals right across the various service lines such as audit, tax, corporate finance, accounts, outsourcing, business recovery and financial services. Our people will benefit from having more career opportunities in the enlarged firm of PKF-FPM Accountants Limited”.
