CaseWare Opens New UK Headquarters
CaseWare, the Canadian accountancy & audit software company, has announced plans for a major expansion and investment programme in the UK and Kent.
The first step was the opening of the firms' new Maidstone office on Thursday, January 26th.
The firm says the move will generate new job opportunities as it seeks to change market perceptions in the UK with a rapidly expanding range of advanced software solutions that streamline the preparation of company accounts; helping to improve efficiency and reduce costs for accountancy practices and companies alike.
CaseWare is already making plans for the development of new product ranges and additional technical support for its growing customer base, to ensure that it remains at the forefront of the industry. It has also pledged that it will work harder than any of its competitors to ensure that its customers always have the latest information and updates they need.
A key part of that growth and increased service levels will be focussed at the Company's new 6,000 square foot offices from which it expects to increase its workforce by 15% over the next few months with projected growth of 20% for the coming year.
The company's new office, adjacent to County Hall, represents a significant step for an organisation that began life in Kent at a humble oast house just 15 years ago.
Managing Director Simon Warren said: "As a global, industry leading organisation, it's important for us to have a UK headquarters synonymous with this, where we can invite our customers from across the UK and where our employees feel proud to work. Our new facility supports our rapid, projected growth over the next few years, providing a modern workspace that better reflects the business that we are today'.
The Mayor of Maidstone Brian Mortimer attended the event to help Simon carry out the official opening. He said: "It's very pleasing for me to see a firm with so much potential moving its offices to Maidstone. I hear there are plans for growth and I'm happy about the prospect of jobs being created for local people."
Founded in Toronto in 1988, CaseWare has become the dominant provider of mission-critical accounting and auditing software used by domestic and global accounting firms, corporations, the public sector and tax authorities.
The company offers a wide range of software solutions for accountants and auditors and with the new office, CaseWare is now ideally placed to further develop its relationships with existing and new clients.
