DJH Mitten Clarke has announced the acquisition of Leeds-based accountancy firm Novis and Co.
Morley will remain the home of the Novis and Co team, however, within the coming months, it will take on the DJH Mitten Clarke name, becoming the Leeds office for the firm.
This is the firm’s latest move since announcing its private equity investment partnership with Tenzing.
CEO Scott Heath said: “Following the launch of our specialist R&D office in Sheffield, it’s fantastic to enhance our presence within Yorkshire even further with a substantial office in Leeds. Our conversations with the team at Novis and Co opened up a new opportunity which was right for our business and a natural next step on our journey.”
Claire Howarth, managing director Novis and Co, added: “After many successful years providing support and business advice for our clients, it was evident that for us to continue to develop and grow our business we needed to look for a partner to strengthen our infrastructure.
“DJH Mitten Clarke brings with it a number of specialist services, such as capital allowances, R&D, corporate finance and commercial & residential funding, along with group services such as marketing, learning and development and recruitment. Ultimately, all of this will enhance the advice and support that we offer to our clients.”
DJH has been acquiring firms for the past two years and has acquired firms in Chester, Manchester, Walsall and now Leeds.
The firm was advised on the acquisition by Knights plc and management was advised by Bevan Brittan LLP.
