Sibbalds Chartered Accountants

04/08/2026

Congratulations to two members of our team who qualified this month.
Elle has passed her final exam and is now a fully qualified Chartered Certified Accountant. Holly has passed her final CTA exam, making her a Chartered Tax Adviser as well as a Chartered Accountant, having gained that qualification in January.

They were part of an almost clean sweep of passes across the firm in July. Supporting our students through their qualifications is something we take seriously, and it is good to see the work pay off.

🎉 Big News from Sibbalds! 🎉

We’re entering an exciting new chapter – and we wanted you to be the first to know.

After months of reflection and planning, we’ve officially rebranded! Our new identity reflects the values that drive us – innovation, collaboration, and excellence – while staying true to the personal service you've always known us for.

💻 We’ve also launched a brand-new website, designed to make it easier for you to find the information and support you need.

📍 And from 5th January 2026, we’ll be fully operational in our new home at the Cavendish Building, part of the University of Derby’s Business School – right at the heart of Derby’s business community.

It’s a fresh look and location, but the same commitment to helping you grow and succeed.
