Poole based Chartered Accountants Inspire has been short listed for the 13th Annual Accountancy Age small firm of the year award which will be judged by Industry heavyweights including the Financial Directors of Tesco, lastminute.com and Lloyds TSB.
Formed in 2004 by its Managing Director, Warren Munson, Inspire has grown rapidly and now boasts a team of thirteen. In June the firm moved to its third set of premises, a modern head office building in the centre of Poole, which will enable the business to build on its achievements and meet its growth plans, from one site, over the next five years.
Since its inception, Inspire has demonstrated consistent growth in client numbers with fee income rising by over 25% in 2006/2007 with a further 33% growth expected in 2007/2008. 
Mr Munson said "When we heard we'd made the shortlist everyone was over the moon. It was a bold step for a young firm as like Inspire to enter for such a prestigious national award but we felt our innovation, technical expertise and commercial acumen would stand us in good stead; our clients were behind us 100% too with some great testimonials forming a key part of our submission."
The awards ceremony will take place in London during November and will be attended by over 1300 guests drawn from the UK Financial Industry and will include Senior Partners and Financial Directors from some of the largest companies in the World. |
