We have enjoyed a TREBLE employee headcount in the Americas over the past 18 months making it an exciting time to be joining us.
Although we've been in the UK accounting market for over 40 years, our North American story began in 2019, when we acquired IRIS Practice Engine, a pioneering Cloud-based practice management software based in the US. In the same year, we broadened our practice management offering further with IRIS Star Practice Management, leaders in advanced practice management solutions to CPA firms in the US, Canada and the Caribbean Islands.
Since then, we have acquired key businesses throughout the Americas, from document management to several HCM businesses providing payroll technology and services both domestically and internationally to over 135 countries globally.
