Menzies LLP and Beever and Struthers have merged to form a national accountancy and business advisory firm with combined fee income of £110 million and more than 1,000 professionals.
The deal brings together two independent firms with long-standing regional strengths—Menzies headquartered in London and Beever and Struthers in Manchester.
The combined entity will operate across offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Cardiff and the South East, broadening its footprint and expanding its sector expertise.
The merger enhances Menzies’ full-service offering while integrating Beever and Struthers’ recognised specialisms in the not-for-profit, education and social housing sectors, including its position as the UK’s leading auditor to the social housing sector.
Maria Hallows, executive partner at Beever and Struthers, said:
“This is a pivotal moment for our firm. For our people, it creates exciting opportunities for collaboration, growth, and continued personal development, while preserving the culture and personal touch we’re known for. Our clients will benefit from deeper expertise, broader services, and stronger regional support.”
Caroline Monk, also an executive partner at Beever and Struthers, said the merger differed from other consolidations in the market. Monk said:
“In a market where consolidation is often driven by private equity, this merger stands apart. It is rooted in shared independence, cultural alignment, and a mutual commitment to delivering lasting value and service excellence.”
Founded in 1912, Menzies provides audit, tax, accounts advisory, financial planning and transaction support, working with clients from fast-growth businesses to large corporates and high-net-worth individuals.
Beever and Struthers adds a strong track record in audit, assurance and strategic advisory work for housing providers, public bodies, educational institutions and social enterprises.

Together, we’re building a truly national firm that stands out for quality, expertise, and trusted relationships.”
The combined firm said it will offer clients across public and private sectors tailored solutions with increased scale and depth, aiming to meet the demands of an evolving business and regulatory environment.
