A fledgling Isle of Man accountancy firm has found a new home to accommodate its growing team after just 18 months since opening.

Astin Accounts Solutions has grown from a one-man operation in a shared office space to a team of four, who are now based in their own 500sqft premises.

Since starting trading in February 2019, managing director Lee Astin has been joined by client accountants Sean Freeland and Lee Greggor, as well as accounts assistant Izzie Cooper, who started her new role this month.

The new home, in Peel Road, Douglas, boasts open-place office space, a boardroom, ample storage space and there’s even room for a table tennis table.

Mr Astin said: ’Previously we operated out of shared office space which worked very well whilst initially just myself back in February 2019 but now we have four of us working at the company we needed to move into a bigger space.

’We feel this is a very positive move for the company which also allows us to put our own company signage on display as well as being an office we can finally call our own.

’Like many professionals, our team spent lockdown working from home and it’s been great to look forward to moving into our new premises and getting the team working together in such a pleasant environment. It’s a modern office with lots of natural light and is in a great location.

’I am sure it’ll be a pleasure to work here and somewhere we can be proud of when our clients visit to catch up.’

Astin Accounts Solutions specialises in providing outsourced accounting services as well as outsourced finance director, business control and accounts systems implementation services.
