Moore Thompson joins Sumer 

Sumer has announced that Moore Thompson has joined the group, expanding Sumer’s presence across the East of England and bolstering its support for agricultural and rural businesses. 

Moore Thompson has 100 employees and operates from offices in Spalding, Wisbech, Market Deeping, Peterborough and Stamford. The firm has been advising SMEs, family-run businesses and charities for more than a century. 

Sumer said it is recognised for its “approachable, relationship-driven style of service”, and that its strong agricultural client base “adds further depth” to one of Sumer’s core sector specialisms. 

It added the addition of Moore Thompson will expand its reach along the east coast of England, complementing existing hubs in the Northeast (RMT Accountants), Yorkshire (BHP) and East Anglia (Scrutton Bland).

Warren Mead, CEO of Sumer, said: “Moore Thompson is a trusted and respected practice with deep roots in the community. Mark and the team have built a firm that truly partners with its clients. Their values and approach align closely with ours, and we’re delighted to welcome them to Sumer.”  

Mark Hildred, managing partner of Moore Thompson, added: “Joining Sumer is a hugely positive step for our firm, our colleagues and our clients. We’re proud of our heritage and the personal relationships we’ve built over many decades. 

“Becoming part of Sumer allows us to retain everything that makes Moore Thompson special, while giving us access to wider expertise and new services which will benefit our clients. It’s an exciting opportunity, and we look forward to working with our colleagues across the Group to support even more businesses in the East of England.”
