Senior Partner Nick Fernyhough is celebrating 35 years at Saffery Champness Chartered Accounts. Nick trained with the firm, initially in London, moving to Bournemouth in 1993. He took up a partnership in 1994.
Nick commented, “My journey with Saffery Champness has seen significant growth over the years. When I joined the Bournemouth office we had just 15 staff. We now have over 60 working in our audit, accounts and tax teams.
“Saffery’s success in the region has been down to the partners believing in the strength of the Dorset economy. We have always been committed to growing the office in this area and servicing the diverse and excellent mix of talent and innovative businesses in the region.
“Our clients are very loyal and the business has grown primarily with them and through recommendations made to other potential clients. We are extremely proud of what we have achieved and the dynamic young team that we are building, which will ensure the success of the business for decades to come.
“I would like to thank the other 5 partners in the Bournemouth office and all our staff for their outstanding commitment and dedication to the business.”
