Ross Prince, managing partner for Crowe’s Midlands and South West offices, said: "It’s wonderful to see Jack being recognised in Accountancy Age’s 35 Under 35.
"He has always brought energy, creativity and tenacity when helping his clients, his team and his community.
"I have been fortunate to see him develop into a skilled advisor who gets a buzz from helping business owners solve problems and implement changes which make a difference.
"We are proud to have him on our team."
Mr Edmonds said: "It’s an honour to have been recognised in the Accountancy Age ‘35 under 35 awards’.
"This is testament to the hard work, passion and quality of the people at Crowe who deliver exceptional service for their clients.
"This recognition also highlights the positive contribution Crowe has made to my career and how the firm nurtures young talent, supporting them on their journey of success.
"I pride myself as a trusted advisor to our clients, delivering a valuable, effective, and rewarding service."
Starting his career at the company in 2011 as an AAT school leaver, Mr Edmonds rapidly climbed the corporate ladder, earning his position as director by the age of 31.
He is also an accredited Mindshop Advisor, and in 2020, he won the Mindshop Rising Star Award.
Mr Edmonds has contributed to the growth of the team in the region since he joined 13 years ago, when there were only eight members.
Today, that number sits at 50.
Mr Edmonds added: "These awards prove that living Crowe’s values – We Care, We Share, We Invest, We Grow – allows you to develop a culture of success."
