Accountancy firm rebrands in growth push

A Black Country accountancy firm is entering a new chapter with a rebrand.

Halesowen-based Nicklin, which has operated for more than 90 years, has become DJH following its acquisition earlier this year.

Bosses say the move gives clients wider access to advisory and professional services while strengthening support for local SMEs, entrepreneurs and high-net-worth individuals.

Backed by private equity investor Tenzing, DJH has expanded rapidly through sixteen acquisitions in four years. 

The firm now employs 750 people across multiple UK and Ireland locations, offering services spanning audit, accounting, tax and specialist business advice.

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.”

Scott Heath, chief executive of DJH, added: “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.”
