EXPANDING accountancy firm Ormerod Rutter has a new home in Bromsgrove.

The firm has returned to Regency House in Birmingham Road to expand its base in the town centre and offer support to more members of the local business community. The office is led by senior partner Julian Dyer and accounts manager Doug Marshall, who has been instrumental in developing the company's apprenticeship scheme. Now entering its fifth year, the initiative has gone from strength to strength with the firm shortlisted for the Worcestershire Apprenticeships Employer of the Year 2015.

Mr Marshall said: “Both the office at Bromsgrove and our headquarters in Droitwich will be taking on more apprentices in September as we maintain our commitment to providing career opportunities for talented young people in the West Midlands.”

Mr Dyer added: “We’re currently experiencing significant growth and pride ourselves on having the expertise across the firm to look after our clients’ financial needs throughout their business journey. As we started as a family firm over 30 years ago, we appreciate what it takes to build a successful business."
