Arena Court welcomes new tenant Craufurd Hale Group

Arena Court welcomes new tenant Craufurd Hale Group

Craufurd Hale Group, a leading accounting and chartered tax advisory firm based in Maidenhead, has taken a new office space in Orbit Southern’s Arena Court to facilitate the organisation’s ongoing growth plans.
Founded in 1949, the company was a traditional accountancy firm but has diversified its service offering to continually meet the full and ever-increasing range of needs of its clients.

Now, the group currently comprises Craufurd Hale LLP (formerly Hale & Company LLP), Craufurd Hale Audit Services Ltd and Craufurd Hale Wealth Management Ltd.

The move follows the rapid expansion and success in the wealth management and audit businesses. Arena Court will now provide quality and modern office space in a prime Maidenhead location to accommodate Craufurd Hale Group’s team of over 40, with additional space for new meeting and training rooms.

Arena Court is an impressive, three-story office building that boasts a set of newly refurbished, high-quality offices. The building is situated on a large prominent site with secure car parking, which was a top priority for Craufurd Hale Group in its search for new office space. The office is also conveniently located near Maidenhead town centre, with good transport links to the A4 and M4 motorway.

Commenting on the move, Daniel Cole at Partner at Craufurd Hale Group said: “The move to Arena Court is the next chapter in our company’s journey and offers huge opportunities for us to continue our growth trajectory. Although the firm has been based in Maidenhead since 1965, our new office in the town centre will help us cement the group as the town's leading advisory firm.”

Tony Jones, Managing Director at Orbit Developments, added: “We are delighted to welcome Craufurd Hale Group to Arena Court. The company’s new office space is on the ground floor and will provide them with the image, location and space needed for future growth. We worked with Daniel and the team to support their move and we wish them every success.”
