PFK To Create 50 Jobs In Leeds With New Financial Services Team

 
Accountancy firm PFK has today announced ambitious plans to grow its northern office with the creation of a new Financial Services team. Spearheaded by new Financial Services Partner, Martin Watson, PKF’s expansion will create up to 50 new jobs in Leeds over the next three years.

Martin Watson, Partner, says: “Now is the right time to be investing in Yorkshire. You only need to look around to see the buzz in the region. But companies based in Leeds and beyond are telling us they want a credible alternative to the ‘Big Four’ in the region; they are crying out for more choice. It’s our goal to offer them that choice”.

James Sleight, partner in PKF’s Leeds Office, said: “Martin’s appointment demonstrates PKF’s commitment to the North of England. We know the area well and we understand the challenges and opportunities facing the region’s businesses. That puts us in a strong position to help.

“Martin’s presence further strengthens our offering in the financial services market and kick-starts the next phase of our investment in Yorkshire. PKF is growing from a strong foundation and the region’s financial services market is in great shape – it’s an exciting time for all of us at PKF Leeds.”
