Accounting Firms in Birmingham
The accounting firms in Birmingham table ranks Birmingham-based firms by total UK fee income.
The table includes many of the Top 10 firms in the UK – the majority of which have offices based in Birmingham.
As the UK’s second largest city in terms of population, Birmingham provides a key and strategic location for UK accountancy firms to establish a presence. A Birmingham location also places the top firms within close proximity of major clients also based in the Midlands. With the government’s industrial strategy looking to bolster UK cities outside of London and ensure that all UK regions benefit from economic development, Birmingham is increasingly becoming one of the most important UK cities outside of London in which to establish business operations.
Firms based in Birmingham offer a wide range of services spanning advisory, audit and assurance, tax, risk consulting and management consulting, and capital and transaction management.
Birmingham firms also work across a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, banking, construction, hospitality, pharmaceuticals, transportation, wealth management, media, government and public sector, manufacturing, private equity, technology, oil and energy, financial services, healthcare, insurance, professional services, real estate, retail, and telecommunications.
