ANYBODY looking for business advice will soon get a helping hand.
Fortus, an advice and accountancy company, is strengthening its southern roots by merging with HJS Accountants in neighbouring Reading.
The business already operates from 12 locations across the country — and now, it will help Thames Valley firms with their auditing, tax and accountancy needs too.
Mark Rogers, Fortus’ new director, said: “What I enjoy most about my work is playing a key role in assisting clients to achieve their strategic goals.
“Becoming a part of Fortus means I can take this level of support even further.
“We’re really excited about the additional knowledge and expertise we can tap into, without sacrificing any aspect of how we work with our clients. That’s extremely important to us.”
Gordon Johnston, executive director of Fortus, said he is delighted to welcome Mark and HJS Accountants’ Reading team to the company.
“It’s an exciting time for all business owners across Reading and the Thames Valley area as the team will have greater access to specialist support, including expertise in international taxation issues, services which will help meet the existing and future needs of its clients,” he said.
