History
With a history dating back to the 19th Century, WH Ireland is the one of the largest independent regional stockbrokers in the UK. After the arrival in 1995 of Chief Executive Laurie Beevers and Deputy Chief Executive David Youngman, the company was restructured and a new Manchester head office opened, with 18 members of staff.
WH Ireland is one of few stockbrokers to have a head office in Manchester, and has continued expanding by opening stockbroking offices all over the UK, including in London, Birmingham, Cardiff, Kilmarnock and Leeds.
Since becoming admitted to AIM in 2000, WH Ireland has achieved Nominated Adviser status (2001) and has opened corporate finance offices in London and Birmingham. In 2006 it added a specialist corporate finance department to its office in Leeds.
WH Ireland (Financial Services) Limited are independent financial advisers who have been based in the Manchester office since 2002, and also in Cardiff since the acquisition of Ingram Phillips in 2003.
In June 2005, the company acquired a 51% interest in WHI Australia Pty Limited, which owns 100% of DJ Carmichael Pty Limited, one of the oldest established stockbroking firms in Perth, Western Australia. Since then, WH Ireland has increased its holding.
WH Ireland now has 17 offices throughout the UK, and employs over 220 people.
