Managing director Helen Thomas said: “This is an exciting new venture for us which marks the beginning of the establishment of Dyke Yaxley in the Telford area.

“We are very proud of our Shropshire roots and the great relationship we have with our clients. Our independence and heritage in the county represents important stability to our clients, whatever their size.

“We look forward to welcoming Ian and his clients to Dyke Yaxley.”

Mr Walsh has worked in the accountancy industry for over 30 years and has been based in Telford for the last 20 years. His career has included directorships with RSM Tenon, Bentley Jennison and Rhodes Walsh & Co.

He said: “Dyke Yaxley has an impeccable reputation and the firm was the natural choice for both my clients and staff to join.

“Although one of the largest and most established full-service accountancy practices in Shropshire, Dyke Yaxley has managed to retain its strong values of offering a personal and friendly service.
