Two West Midlands accountancy firms have merged.
Jerroms, which has offices in Solihull and Bromsgrove, has joined forces with Harben Barker which also has a base in Solihull and Coleshill.
The undisclosed deal comes just weeks after Jerroms completed its merger with Birmingham-based financial management business Blue Sky Corporate Finance.
As part of the deal, staff at Harben Barker's Solihull office will relocate to Jerroms' headquarters on Blythe Valley Park on the outskirts of the town.
The newly formed group will have a payroll of 120 staff and former Harben Barker directors David Minett, Jane Barnett and Paul Stanford will remain with the new business as consultants.
Jerroms' director Lucas Markou said: "This move forms part of a wider strategic business decision for us to further expand our reach across the Midlands, gaining an additional office in Coleshill to run alongside our existing Solihull and Bromsgrove locations.
"After an incredibly difficult and challenging year, we are delighted to welcome David, Jane, Paul and the rest of the team as we invigorate our efforts to support businesses and individuals through this critical time and work closely with our clients to accelerate their business growth."
Mr Minett added: "Joining Jerroms is a natural fit for us as, in many respects, they are an extension of our existing service offering, with additional opportunities for our clients to benefit from the full array of financial services available from the wider Jerroms group.
"We are pleased to be making this move at a time when we want to provide our clients with the highest level of support.
"As both businesses share the same core values and commitment to client service, we are very much looking forward to joining the Jerroms family and working with them towards the future success of the business."
Law firms Hawkins Hatton and Higgs & Sons advised on the deal.
