DSG HITS RECORD £8M REVENUE
12 Months On From Mbo
Liverpool-based accountancy & advisory firm says growth was driven by focus on helping clients navigate challenges & opportunities
Liverpool’s largest independent accountancy and advisory firm DSG is celebrating a year of record growth, 12 months on from its management buyout (MBO).
The firm, which has remained independent, has reported turnover exceeding £8m for the first time in its history.
Revenues in the current financial year are tracking 10% ahead of the same period last year, with the firm attributing its growth to its advisory-led approach and focus on helping clients navigate challenges and opportunities.
Over the past year, the company has expanded its services for owner-managed businesses, adding to its established strengths in audit, accounts and compliance with investment in advisory areas such as tax, corporate finance and wealth management.
The business also grew its Virtual Finance Office (VFO), which uses cloud-based technology to provide real-time financial insights.
Since the MBO last year, 25 new recruits have joined, including audit partner Kate Taylor and senior manager Chris Wright, who leads the expanding VFO team.
Last month alone, six graduates and apprentices came on board, alongside two university placement students.
A further 16 employees are currently pursuing professional qualifications.
This commitment was recognised earlier this year with the award of Investors in People accreditation.
“It has been a transformative year for DSG,” said Mark Kearsley, partner at DSG who coled the MBO.
“Remaining independent has allowed us to stay true to our heritage and communities, while also evolving to meet the changing opportunities and challenges that our clients face.
“Everything we do has continued to focus on helping our clients secure their financial futures with confidence.”
Laura Leslie, partner and co-leader of the MBO, added: “Our MBO was a statement of belief in our people and business that remains unchanged.
“A year on, the decision has been reflected in record turnover, a widening of our services and brilliant recognition of our team.
“We are proud to continue offering independent, high-quality advisory services that help businesses across all sectors maximise value at the moments that matter most.” www.dsg.co.uk
