EQ merges with Carters

We welcome Carters staff and clients to EQ, following our merger on 1st April 2015. EQ now comprises over 100 staff, including 15 partners, based in our four offices in Tayside and Fife.

The newly merged firm is estimated to achieve a turnover in the first full year in excess of £6.5 million, and is expecting to increase staff numbers through growth across all areas of the practice.
David Cameron, Managing Partner of EQ said, “We are delighted to welcome on-board over 40 people who will be working in EQ’s Cupar and Glenrothes offices, and who will strengthen what is already a formidable resource. We are completely focused on supporting the business community in our primary geographic territory, and continuing to expand upon our reputation for quality of service and innovation. Each of our firms has benefited for many years from maintaining excellent relationships with the business communities in Tayside and Fife, and we believe that it is important to retain this approach. We have also established ourselves as an “Employer of Choice” within our region, and the quality of talent which we have at our disposal is exceptional.”

The firm will operate under the EQ brand, and in the first instance as “EQ @ Carters” in Fife, reflecting the importance of the Carters brand and the strong foundation that was established over many years. The move will see a very significant investment by EQ, estimated to be in excess of £500k, ensuring that each of the firm’s offices has the appropriate resources available to most effectively support clients.
