Saffery in High Wycombe, a leading accountancy and business advisory practice for clients in the Thames Valley, recently welcomed Darren Drake, the firm’s new Managing Partner to the office, as part of national firm’s ongoing commitment to supporting its teams across the country. The visit provided an opportunity to engage directly with colleagues, discuss the firm’s strategic priorities and clients’ needs for the new financial year.
The High Wycombe office has nearly doubled in size over the past five years, with its client base expanding significantly – particularly among owner-managed businesses; private wealth and family trusts; agricultural and rural; hospitality; real estate; recruitment; professional services; international businesses; charities and not-for-profit; science and technology sectors. This growth reflects the firm’s strong reputation for delivering high-quality advisory and accountancy services in the region, as well as its ability to attract and retain talented professionals.
With deep roots in the Thames Valley spanning 39 years, it is also committed to supporting the local community through its partnership with Heart of Bucks, a charity dedicated to helping those in need in Buckinghamshire, with total donations of over £10,000 to date.
Commenting on the visit, Managing Partner, Darren Drake said: “Our High Wycombe office is a great example of what makes Saffery such a strong proposition for both clients and our people. We’re continuing to grow because of the quality of our work and investment in our people. For businesses and individuals, that means trusted advice and long-term support; for those joining us, it means the opportunity to build a rewarding career as part of an ambitious and supportive firm.”
Luke Hanratty, Partner at Saffery in High Wycombe added:
It was a pleasure to welcome Darren and showcase the growth we’ve made locally. The visit reflects Saffery’s continued investment in the Thames Valley and the opportunities ahead for both our clients and our team.
