PSTAX has celebrated an incredible 20 years in business this year, being formed in 2003. Founder Peter Gladdish has championed the decision to join the Dains group of businesses saying ‘Having been established for 20 years PSTAX is delighted to join forces with Dains as we continue to grow our market share across the UK. With Dains’ support, we will be able to provide a broader service to our clients and connect to an incredible network of advisors across the group’.
Richard McNeilly, CEO of Dains said ‘PSTAX and more latterly S3TAX, which was launched in 2022, have developed a fantastic proposition for clients’ which blends helpline support and training with first-class consultancy advice. The team is a great fit and although we traditionally operate in different market segments, our ethos is absolutely consistent, where we support clients and help them deliver long-term success’.
Duncan Groves, Managing Director of PSTAX believes the move is perfect for clients and his team. ‘Our business is built on the quality of our people and our clients. Investment from Dains will enable the business to continue to grow and provide even better career opportunities for our talented team’.
Luke Kingston, Partner at Horizon Capital, said ‘We are delighted to have supported Richard and Dains on their fourth acquisition and welcome the PSTAX team. We share everyone’s enthusiasm for the significant opportunities created by bringing the businesses together’.
