CSG Accountants & Advisors, a Kerry-based accountancy firm, has merged with ORM Accountants of Killarney, creating a larger regional presence across Tralee and Killarney. 

The combined firm will employ 70 staff and serve 2,250 clients across Kerry and the wider Munster region.

Chris Murray, managing partner at CSG, highlighted that client relationships will remain unchanged, while the merger strengthens access to tax, audit, accountancy, and advisory expertise.

Murray added, “Our role is to stand beside those businesses as a long-term partner helping them navigate change, manage risk and plan for the future. Combining the strengths of CSG and ORM puts us in a great position to do exactly that. CSG’s ambition is to ensure that every client receives best-in-class advisory support. We are building a firm that combines national expertise with local understanding, and this merger is a perfect example of that approach in action.”

John Mannix, managing director of ORM and incoming director at CSG, emphasised that clients will continue to receive personalised service in Killarney, while benefiting from deeper specialist expertise and forward-looking advisory support, including leveraging opportunities from AI and technology, ensuring businesses are positioned for future success.

“Along with maintaining our strong personal service locally in Killarney, clients will benefit from deeper specialist expertise and a forward-looking advisory approach, including helping them identify, understand and leverage opportunities arising from the evolving Artificial Intelligence and technology landscape. This ensures our clients are not only successful today but well positioned for the future,” Mannix said.

The strategic merger positions the combined CSG and ORM operation to deliver enhanced accountancy, advisory, and specialist services across Munster while maintaining local client relationships and hands-on support.
