Scarborough accountancy firm rebrands as business advisors

The new professional services brand provides knowledge, advice and support to business owners.

Having been supporting and advising local businesses for more than 80 years as Winn & Co, it was the creative minds around the newly-formed Fortus management table that were keen to explore opportunities to create a new business and a new brand.

With newly-recruited Executive Directors, Fortus has the freedom to explore the UK-wide market, providing advisory and accountancy services to business owners.

Fortus’ service offerings include not only accountancy and tax but also property and asset management, HR, talent development, business performance improvement, corporate

finance and strategic planning.

Commenting on joining the Fortus brand, former Winn & Co Directors and new Fortus Directors, Sharon Clipperton and Paul Dixon, said: “Fortus is made up of a team of talented individuals who have a breadth and depth of expertise.

"Led by an ambitious, creative, experienced and dynamic leadership team who challenge the traditional thought processes of a historical accountancy partner model, we’re sure this is the right move for the business and our valuable clients.”

Craig Herbert, Executive Director at Fortus said: “We’re never afraid to invest in the business in order to deliver longer term sustainability and specialist thinking and advice.

“We’re excited by what the future holds for Fortus and we look forward to working with and building relationships with so many ambitious business owners across the East Coast.”

Fortus will be operating UK wide with 11 offices and has the main coverage at present in the Midlands and the North of England.
