Accountancy firm Azets has announced plans to create 150 new jobs in the North East as part of its growth strategy.
The company already has 12 offices across the region – in Stockton-on-Tees, Morpeth, Alnwick, Crook, Durham, Guisborough, Hexham, Carlisle, Seaton Burn, Sunderland, Wynyard and Newcastle – with more than 320 business advisors providing accounting and business advisory services to SMEs. Now the firm says it is investing heavily in the next generation of talent, as part of moves to aid future progression of the SME market while also increasing group revenue by 50% in the coming five years.
The jobs will be focused around the three main offices in Stockton, Durham and Gosforth, with recruitment to a lesser extent in the smaller offices. Azets provide specialist accounting and business advisory services to growing and ambitious SMEs, with these services being delivered by local people from local offices.
