There is also a highly talented pool of people and we’re confident that we will be able to recruit new, qualified staff with an excellent understanding of the Welsh market.”

Bruce Black, corporate tax director, said: “As a Cardiff resident, I am delighted to have the opportunity to be part of the new office in my home city.
