Tax firm expands national presence following accelerated growth

Claritas Tax has expanded its national presence after achieving a headline growth of 38.6 per cent during 2025.

During last year, the firm completed its first acquisition, bringing the UK Tax Incentives & Reliefs business of Markel International in Sheffield into the Claritas wing.

This milestone was complemented by the opening of new offices in Leeds and the City of London.

To meet growing demand, Claritas strengthened its team by recruiting 44 new professionals across all service lines, bringing total headcount to over 100, with further expansion planned for 2026.

Iain Wright, founding partner & Birmingham office lead said: “2025 was a phenomenal year, but we’re not slowing down. Our team’s dedication and expertise have set us apart, and 2026 will be about pushing boundaries even further.

“We’re committed to bold growth, exceptional client service, and maintaining the culture that makes Claritas unique. The pipeline is strong, and we’re incredibly excited about the future.”

Matt Hodgson, Partner & Manchester office lead continued: “The appetite to grow and expand our services is stronger than ever, and our reputation in the mid-market continues to soar.

“Despite wider economic challenges, we’re confident that 2026 will be another record-breaking year. Our people are the driving force behind this success, and together we’ll keep outperforming expectations.”
