Halesowen-based Nicklin has become DJH following its acquisition in June in a deal that will give existing and new clients greater access to advice and professional services.
The vision going forward is focused on supporting local small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs), owner-managed firms, high-net-worth individuals and GPs.
Mark Howell, director of DJH Halesowen, said: “When we became part of the DJH group in June, the plan was always to introduce the DJH branding in autumn and now is the perfect time to complete the rebrand.
“As we said at the time, it was going to be a great move and the transition for clients has been seamless, with the same leadership team still in place and the added bonus of having access to new services in corporate finance, commercial funding, HR and private client planning, such as wills and probates.
“We’ve already seen an increase in business since the deal, and we now look forward to expanding DJH’s name in the Black Country and across the West Midlands.”
DJH, which is backed by private equity investor Tenzing, is one of the UK’s fastest-growing professional services and accountancy groups.
Following a series of 16 acquisitions in four years, the firm has grown into a multi-disciplinary team of 750 people with two offices in the Black Country and locations in Altrincham, Bexley, Bury, Chester, Derby, Dublin, Huddersfield, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Nantwich, Sheffield and Stoke-on-Trent.
The company provides access to audit, accounting, tax, and specialist business advisory services, combining local expertise with national reach, while maintaining personalised service at its heart.
Scott Heath, CEO of DJH, said: “Nicklin has been a great servant to the Black Country, and we want to build on this legacy and deliver even more business support and services to local entrepreneurs and companies.
“The DJH name is one of the most exciting stories in the accounting world and the rebrand will hopefully set up this part of the group for its next 90 years of growth.”
