Good things grow when you invest in people.

We’re proud to see Fortus included in Business & Accountancy Daily’s Top 75 Trainees Survey 2026.

At Fortus, developing talent isn’t just about building our own team. Through , we’re helping people build rewarding careers in accountancy, gaining recognised qualifications, hands-on experience and support from people who want to see them succeed.

As a firm, we want to play our part in building the next generation of talent right here in our region – giving people the opportunity to develop their skills, grow their careers and contribute to the businesses and communities around them.

A big well done to our trainees, and thank you to everyone across Fortus who supports them along the way.

The right people in a room together. That's where things start to happen.

Last week, we celebrated Fortus Property with an evening at our Leeds office - drinks, canapés, and the kind of conversations and connections to help our clients take their next steps.

Fortus Property brings specialist property finance, accounting, tax and wealth management together under one roof. One team with the full picture.

But the services are only part of it. Property is personal. Every acquisition, every development, every refinance has its own pressures and ambitions behind it. Our job is understanding those - and helping you make the most of what comes next.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Leeds. Good projects start with good people, and we had a room full of them.

(and a cracking spread from The Pickled Fork of course)

Most business owners aren't short of numbers. The challenge is knowing what they mean for your business, right now.

Because a lot can change between one set of accounts and the next. Costs creep up. Cash flow shifts. Opportunities come along that weren't on the radar a few months ago.

Having a clearer, more up-to-date picture of your business helps you spot those changes sooner and make decisions with confidence, rather than looking back and wondering what happened.

At Fortus, we look beyond the numbers to understand the bigger picture, helping you see what's changing, what matters and where to go next.

Property projects rarely run in a straight line. Funding, tax, company structuring and exit strategies all pull on each other. The right advice at the right moment makes all the difference.

That's why Ice³ Group has joined Fortus.

Tom Frank leads the team. He has 25+ years in property finance and has helped clients raise more than £500m. He's seen every stage of a project: acquisition, development, refinancing and exit. He knows where the problems hide.

Ice³ clients get the same specialist, hands-on service, plus access to Fortus expertise in wealth, tax and property-focused accounting - while Fortus clients now have a dedicated property finance capability to call on.

It's a simple idea. Put the right people around the table, and big plans get easier to deliver.

For , we’re celebrating something we already know: good people make a difference.

Our latest employee survey came back loud and clear - one of the things our people value most about working at Fortus is, well, our people.

Of course, we’ve got practical support in place too, from our Employee Assistance Programme and medical cash scheme - but the day-to-day stuff matters just as much.

The check-in. The cup of tea. The laugh when you need it. Someone noticing you’re not quite yourself. Having people around you who genuinely care.

We’re lucky to have a culture where looking out for each other is part of how we work - not just something written into a policy.

Because when people feel supported by the people around them, everyone has a better chance to thrive.

We spend a lot of time talking about the businesses we work with. But behind every conversation, strategy and piece of advice are our people.

So we thought it was time to get to know some of the faces behind the roles.

And it seemed only right to start with someone who knows a thing or two about getting to know people - our very own Head of People, Zoe Waring.

We asked Zoe a few questions about life outside work, including her dream car (spoiler: she’d rather not drive it), the famous person she’s met and, apparently, her very much not guilty crush.

Say hello to Zoe.

Great client relationships are built on more than delivering a service.

Thank you for your continued trust in Fortus. We're proud to be part of your journey.
