Expanding our presence in Portsmouth
We are delighted to share that our Portsmouth team have relocated to a modern new office at Lakeside North Harbour. This move reflects the continued growth of our Hampshire presence and strengthens our long-standing commitment to supporting businesses across the South Coast.
Building on over 50 years in the city
Our Portsmouth office became part of Carpenter Box following our merger with Jones Avens, building on a long-standing, 50 year presence in the local business community. Since joining the firm, the team has continued to strengthen trusted relationships with local organisations across the region, while further developing our expertise in tax, business services and advisory support. As our client base has expanded, so too has the need for a modern workspace that supports collaboration, innovation and the evolving needs of our people. The relocation to Lakeside North Harbour provides exactly that.
A modern workspace designed for growth
Situated just off the A27, Lakeside is home to a thriving professional community and offers excellent transport links, high-quality facilities and a welcoming environment for both staff and visitors. The new office space comfortably accommodates up to 30 people, giving us the capacity to grow while ensuring our team has access to a bright, modern and flexible working environment. This investment also supports our ambition to attract more local talent and further strengthen our presence in the Portsmouth area.
Supporting collaboration and exceptional client service
The move marks a significant milestone for the Portsmouth team, who have played an important role in supporting businesses across Hampshire. The new office will enable us to continue delivering high‑quality advice while embracing new ways of working. Whether meeting clients in our dedicated meeting rooms, collaborating in shared spaces or connecting with the wider community, the environment is designed to support productivity, wellbeing and long-term growth.
Peter Reading, Partner at the Portsmouth Office said:
“Our new Portsmouth office at Lakeside North Harbour office marks an exciting step in supporting businesses across the Solent with hands‑on, partner‑led accounting, audit, and tax advisory services. As a local team backed by national expertise, we’re here to help owner‑managed businesses and growing SMEs navigate changing regulations, improve financial visibility, and make confident decisions about the future. Opening in Lakeside North Harbour allows us to be closer to our clients and professional contacts, strengthen our presence in the region, and create new opportunities for ambitious organisations who value proactive, commercially minded advisers.”
