HB Chartered Accountants, formerly run by founder Hilary Baines, will now operate under Salisbury’s banner.
As part of the agreement, two existing HB staff members – chartered accountant Vanessa Blanchard and accounts administrator Abigail Bowers-Baines – have joined Salisbury’s.
The company’s new Mold office, located on Chester Street in the town centre, will be managed by Salisbury’s senior executive manager, Hannah Addison, working alongside chartered accountant Luke Owen.
In addition to Mold, Salisbury’s operates from offices in Ruthin, Beaumaris, Llangefni and Menai Bridge, in addition to its base in St Asaph.
Salisbury’s Chartered Accountants director Aled Roberts said: “Reaching 40 years in business is something we are incredibly proud of. The pace of growth over the last few years has been phenomenal.
“To double our team in just two years and open new offices shows the strength of the relationships we have built and the trust clients place in us.
“Moving into Mold is a big step for us. We are excited to be part of a thriving local business community and to support more companies and individuals while creating opportunities locally.”
Following the latest deal, Salisbury’s now employs close to 50 people.
Over the past six years, the company has expanded from a single office to six locations across north Wales.
The acquisition follows the recruitment of six new staff members, including trainee accountants, last autumn as the practice adds capacity in line with its expansion plans.
