Since 1995 Sutton McGrath Hartley have been a Chartered Accountancy firm based in Sheffield and Chesterfield. In 2018 the firm began an exciting growth period, first acquiring BullockWoodburn followed by Haywood & Co, Andertons Liversidge, Jolliffe Cork, Malcolm J Harris, BCL Accountants, D’Arcy Howard & Co, Howard Matthews, Sheards and Reed Smith. Now, with over 150 staff across 9 offices and additional services being offered within the group, it has become clear that for the clients of each office to benefit, everything should be tied together with a new SMH branding. In 2022, the SMH Group was born, with all the individual offices having their original names prefixed with ‘SMH’. The change allows us to give each office access to the wider group’s services, whilst keeping the local knowledge and expertise in each area. The rebrand was the vision of James Hartley in a bid to make sure there is a clear path and structure for existing and new group entities. The mission of the newly formed SMH Group is to ‘ensure no financial stone is left unturned’ to enable clients to access all their financial requirements within one group of companies.
