Brearley & Co acquires Cameron Alexander
The expansion is set to create ‘significant’ opportunities for clients and employees, including potential recruitment as the firm continues to grow
Yorkshire-based Brearley and Co has acquired Cameron Alexander as part of its ongoing growth strategy.
This deal brings the firm’s total office acquisitions to five, adding Cameron Alexander’s team to its existing staff count of 56, as well as expanding the services available to both client bases.
Based in Barnsley, Cameron Alexander was established in 2008 by Alex Walls.
Brearley and Co said the move brings in expertise in sectors such as taxation, self-assessment tax returns, debt recovery, payroll, annual accounts, VAT services, auto-enrolment, and financial advice.
In addition, it added that the expansion is set to create “significant” opportunities for clients and employees, including potential recruitment as the firm continues to grow.
Walls said: “It’s a really exciting time to be merging with Brearley and Co accountants. The firm is now better positioned than ever before to meet the evolving needs of the accountancy sector and the needs of our clients.
“Alongside developing the team and driving growth with our combined expertise and services, I’m also looking forward to contributing to our focus on client success and addressing areas that are becoming increasingly vital within the industry.”
Mark Smallman, MD of Brearley and Co, added: “Cameron Alexander is a well-established practice in the centre of Barnsley. The merger of our existing Barnsley office into their office increases our footprint, enabling us to support the local business community.
“We are excited to be working with Alex Walls and his team.”
Last year, the firm also acquired two offices from FL Accounting in Doncaster and Chapeltown.
