Company

At Buzzacott, just over 600 people work together under one roof in the heart of the City, making us the largest single office accountancy firm in the UK.

As an independent firm, we empower and nurture our people. We earn trust through empathy and by building long-term relationships, enabling collective success.

We’re big enough to offer deep knowledge across a range of specialisms, yet small enough to value the power of personal connections. Over time, we have moved from being accountants to trusted advisers and partners to our clients. We believe our work is as much about relationships as expertise, and we look for individuals who are prepared to look beyond the numbers to understand the people and stories behind them.

Our approach combines broad expertise with strong personal connections. As we collaborate, analyse, and make recommendations, we also build enduring relationships that last.
