Investment supports growth strategy at accountancy practice

Walker & Sutcliffe, a chartered accountancy practice based in Huddersfield, has invested £25,000 in computer hardware designed to enhance the company’s processes and deliver efficiencies for its team.

This is also intended to allow for a transition from a solely office-based workplace to a more hybrid formula.

Setting the foundations for a three-year strategy underpinned by expansion, the business explains this is the first phase of a longer-term plan that will see additional funds allocated to software and training over the coming months.

Practice partner, Nick Ledgard, said: “We have strategic plans for expansion over the next three years and I want to make sure we have everything we need to meet with our ambitions.

“Putting in place the hardware is just the first step. Next is the software and training that will allow us to use these systems effectively and benefit from the efficiencies that they can deliver.

“After all, it’s all well and good having the equipment but if we can’t access its full potential then we are not
making the most of the opportunity it affords us.

“As a practice, we are always looking at ways that we can improve, not just the systems that we have but also the skills within the team.

“This is a great opportunity to learn new ways of working that will benefit the team and our clients.”
