At this year’s prestigious Accounting Excellence Awards, we were thrilled to take home Gold for Employer of the Year (Mid-Tier Firm) - a national recognition that celebrates our people-first approach and vibrant workplace culture.
With five offices across Devon and over 130 team members, we have always believed that our strength lies in our people. We have worked hard to create an environment where everyone feels safe, supported and valued. From long-standing apprenticeships to career-long development plans, we’re committed to helping our team grow - professionally and personally.
The judges were particularly impressed by our submission, which showcased not only our values but the data to back them up. With staff absence rates at just 0.38% and 14% of our team having been with us for over 25 years, it’s clear that our culture of care and commitment is making a real difference.
We were also recognised for our dedication to nurturing future talent. As an apprentice employer for over two decades, we currently support 23 apprentices and we’re especially proud that one of our Directors began their journey with us as an apprentice 13 years ago.
Beyond the office, our team brings energy and enthusiasm to the wider community. Whether it is as part of our volunteering days, taking part in 5K runs, or hosting our annual Really Big Quiz, we love finding ways to give back and have fun together.
Our Managing Partner, Mark Simic, said:
"I'm thrilled to see the firm recognised on the national stage by Accounting Excellence. We have tried hard to build on our culture as a priority, and make 'people first' decisions, alongside our growth efforts as a firm, with some impressive retention and longevity stats to match.
This is a win for everyone at Simpkins Edwards. Ultimately, we're a business of people, trying our best for other people.”
The Accounting Excellence Awards have been celebrating innovation, client care and digital transformation in the profession since 2006. We’re thrilled to be part of that story and even more excited about what’s ahead.
