“This acquisition instantly presents an array of opportunities to improve and expand our services”
Gareth Stanger, a director of Magi GJJ Limited, explains why this acquisition means exciting times are ahead for the Churchill Knight Group and its stakeholders.
“We’re thrilled to be expanding our portfolio of businesses in the contractor payroll sector. Churchill Knight has always been one of the best-known and respected accountants and umbrella company providers in the UK. With our group’s experience, knowledge, drive and investment opportunities, I am confident we can steer Churchill Knight upwards and back to where it belongs – as the first organisation all contractors and recruiters consider when searching for a compliant and service-focused accountant and umbrella.
Churchill Knight is already setting the standards in customer service and compliance, and the FCSA accreditation and SafeRec certification are accolades we value highly and look forward to maintaining. You only need to take a look at the group’s online reviews to see what an exceptional job the staff are already doing.
This acquisition instantly presents an array of opportunities to improve and expand our services and to help more contractors, freelancers and small business owners. We plan to introduce additional service offerings to cater to the broader market while increasing departmental budgets to allow the companies to grow further and provide extra support to stakeholders – especially recruitment agencies.
We also have the knowledge and expertise to increase efficiency and streamline business processes, which will benefit everyone at Churchill Knight, and organisations within our supply chain.”
Business as usual
The Churchill Knight Group will continue to operate as usual, and there will be no changes to how we operate or the excellent service we provide. However, exciting times are ahead, and we look forward to continuing to support our clients and umbrella employees along the way. Please continue to check our blog for new developments.
Sarah O’Toole, Director at Churchill Knight Umbrella, said:
“Churchill Knight has always been a major player at the centre of the contractor payroll sector, thanks to our commitment to providing leading customer service and our dedication to compliance. I am incredibly excited about the acquisition because it will allow us to grow our businesses, enter new markets and enhance the services we offer our partners, clients and umbrella employees.
Having been at Churchill Knight since 2013, I am looking forward to playing a key role in the growth of Churchill Knight and cannot wait to work with the new owners to take Churchill Knight back to where it belongs – as the most recognised and respected provider of contractor accountancy and umbrella payroll in the industry.”
