Leonard Curtis opens Taunton office to boost South West reach

Professional services provider Leonard Curtis has extended its South West footprint with the opening of an office in Taunton.

The firm specialises in corporate restructuring and insolvency, personal debt advice, equity and debt finance raising for SMEs, property solutions and legal services.

The Taunton office will be led by director Siann Huntley, who will drive the team’s reach in the Taunton and Exeter region. Siann brings with her two decades of experience, having joined Leonard Curtis’ Bristol office six years ago.

Siann is already familiar with the South West region, having been tasked in 2019 with setting up and developing the company’s Cardiff office. During this time Siann and her expert team have supported many SME businesses through uncertain and testing times, providing advice and guidance when they need it most.

The opening comes at the ideal time for local SME owners, as Leonard Curtis looks to navigate an unsteady climate where rising living costs, post-Covid fallout, and wider global issues all threaten business stability.

Siann comments, “There is no better time for us to be investing in our Taunton office, solidifying our presence in the South West region and extending our expertise and resources for SMEs in the area.

“Being able to take the weight off the shoulders of clients who have clearly been worrying about their business’ financial position and performance for a while is very rewarding. We always reassure them that we’re never judgemental and there’s nothing that we haven’t seen before.”

Daniel Booth, CEO of Leonard Curtis, adds, “The best relationships are made locally with people you know and trust. With Siann and her team’s extensive experience in the area already, we are confident that the addition of a Taunton office will allow us to excel in all aspects of advisory and support for that sector.”
