UK-based accountancy firm Butterworth Barlow has merged with the chartered accountancy practice Suzanne Hill & Co.

The merger results in Suzanne Hill & Co being fully integrated into Butterworth Barlow’s operations.

Suzanne Hill, director of Suzanne Hill & Co, will stay on as a consultant with Butterworth Barlow, while her trusted team member, Sally Perry, will also come on board to support the firm’s expansion.

Hill added: “Joining forces with Butterworth Barlow feels like the right move for both my clients and my team.

“This merger allows us to offer enhanced resources and support while keeping the personalised service that our clients value. I’m excited for this new chapter and the opportunities it brings.”

The Chester office of Suzanne Hill & Co remains operational, providing continuity for clients and extending Butterworth Barlow’s geographical footprint in the North West region.

Clients, particularly those in the medical sector and small limited companies, will gain access to the broader expertise and additional services offered by the larger practice, Butterworth Barlow stated.

Butterworth Barlow partner Barry Barlow said: “This merger is an exciting step forward for us. Suzanne has built a fantastic reputation, particularly with medical practitioners, and we’re thrilled to bring her expertise to our team.

“We look forward to officially welcoming her and Sally to the firm. Their experience and client-focused approach align perfectly with our values, and we can’t wait to work together to continue providing outstanding service to clients old and new.”
