Haines Watts has announced double digit growth in FY22 with revenues hitting the £105m mark, following “steady” organic growth and continued acquisitions as part of the firm’s ‘buy and build’ strategy.
All regions have performed well, and tax has continued to be a “solid” service line, supported by audit and general accounting as the firm continues to see clients migrate from the Big Four.
Following the appointment of a chief information officer in 2021, the group is continuing to expand its in-house digital expertise, including boosting its technology offering to cater for the firms’ and clients’ evolving business needs and challenges.
Haines Watts said that integrating business data and intelligence across functions in real time is becoming a “crucial” competitive advantage. Particularly, supporting clients to “better” respond to the current disruptions in global supply chains has been a key development.
The firm added that talent acquisition, retention, diversity and inclusion remain high on its list of priorities, and Haines Watts has hired a chief people officer to “accelerate” that journey.
Michael Davidson, managing partner, said: “Our people have always been our main priority and we have continued to prioritise investment in our teams and our office spaces over the past two years. I am particularly proud that we have promoted the highest number of ‘home-grown’ partners in the business to date.
“Our regional model delivers well as we create more synergy between offices and better support both our teams and our clients.”
Haines Watts has over 40 offices across the UK and operates a regional model across 10 regions to support its local offices.
