A 90-year-old Halesowen accountancy practice has been bought out by private equity-backed DJH.
The acquisition of Nicklin strengthens DJH’s presence in the West Midlands, adding to its offices in Stoke-on-Trent and Walsall.
“This is a great move for our team and our clients, who will now have access to the wider range of services and resources DJH offer,” said Mark Howell, managing director of Nicklin.
“We’ve been serving the Black Country for more than 90 years and we’re fiercely passionate about giving companies, owners and GP surgeries transparent financial support to help them grow and create jobs across the region.”
