Culture
At Buzzacott, our culture is built on a foundation of trust - everyone is respected, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. Our team members are treated fairly and have equal access to opportunities to enable them to thrive individually and contribute to the firm’s success.
As part of our People First strategy which encompasses our Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion initiatives, we’re pleased to be recognised as an ‘Inclusive Employer’. Inclusive Employers are the first and leading membership organisation for employers who are committed to prioritising inclusion and creating truly inclusive workplaces.
From providing our team members quiet spaces for prayers to educational lunches and events to celebrate all walks of life, we strive to create a comfortable workplace where all our people have a sense of belonging.
In addition, we have volunteering schemes in local schools, farms, and food banks. We’ve also set up a memorial fund in memory of the late Buzzacott partner and friend to many, Stuart Defries, that reaches both local and international causes. Our people make us who we are today. With several hundreds of people, speaking over 25 languages, ranging in age and background. Not only are we recognised as a top 100 apprenticeship employer, we’re also a top 25 accountancy firm for charities, corporates, and individuals.
Values
Trust: Everything we do is based on trust. Trust between colleagues internally, trust between us and our clients.
Client focus: We see each client as an individual. By taking the time to know them and understand their view - whether familiar or unusual - we can shape our service to fit them. We believe that it’s only when we’re standing where they’re standing that we can serve them properly.
Exceptional service: We always add value. By making extra efforts to support people as well as we can and continually striving to be the best at what we do.
Approachability: We collaborate. By working to create a friendly, open and receptive environment when we talk to both clients and each other.
Specialism: And we’re specialists. We’re sector experts in multiple areas, plus niche sectors handled by few other firms. So you find opportunities here that you don’t find elsewhere.
