What an honour. 💓 Last night Cooper Parry won the award for Best Alumni Branding Campaign at the Global ALUMS Awards hosted by EnterpriseAlumni 🏆 A reminder that CP is breaking the norms of how people think things should be done. Also shortlisted for the awards: Harrods 💚 💛 SWAROVSKI 💎 & Activision Blizzard 🍬 👑 Now I can tell you that all 3 of the above would’ve been more than worthy winners - they are doing some pretty special things in the Alumni space, have some epic branding and are using video content, story telling and gamification beautifully- I have taken so many learnings from them (thank you Raj Basi, Daria Pełeńska, Briana Lebel) We launched our Alumni only a short time ago, the purpose was to reconnect past CP’ers and to create a sense of community. It was important to us that if you are part of the CP Alumni it feels like all the things working for CP felt like. That it was fun, that it was different and that most of all you no longer felt like a ‘past’ CP’er, instead you feel you are #CPForever 💘 This is why the branding and the launch of #CPForever really mattered, why it’s colourful, bright, fun and mirrors our core CP branding. This is why we kicked off with a party and not a stuffy networking event. 🪩 This is why the award for Best alumni branding campaign globally is such a proud moment. And I couldn’t write this post without a special mention to Steve Noss, Cooper Parry’s creative genius 🧠 The brand you see so vibrantly at CP, on our we

COOLEST OFFICES IN THE UK 📍 Hey, they're not our words. It's what others have been saying about our offices. When it comes to our spaces, our design brief has always been simple - to think about what accountants’ offices should look like, and build the exact opposite. This mantra is part of our DNA. We've been dubbed "the rebels of accountancy" for a while now. ⚡️ We bring eye-popping colour, stripped-back pop art and a more relaxed conversational tone to everything, that is our zig to the rest of the sector’s zag. We live and breathe our values, not just sticking them up as a wall poster. We've also been way ahead of the game on remote working and audits (way before it became such a ‘thing’). Our WFAAF policy means our people can work from anywhere, anytime forever. So, whether it's working from home, or one of our offices in London, Birmingham, and the East Midlands - or even abroad, the choice is theirs. We're the Number One Accountancy Firm To Work For for a reason. So if your career needs a splash of colour, check out our available roles.

Start the week with a bang, they say. 🎇 So, here’s me lighting the touch paper. I’m thrilled that Cooper Parry has just exchanged on our eighth deal in 16 months. 8️⃣ ⚡️ And this one’s the acquisition of the fast-growing (like 70% YoY quick) London-based tech consultancy Cloud Orca. As soon as we started talking, we knew the fit was spot on. ✅ They are the ‘go-to’ for Salesforce, the CRM global leader, for the likes of Revolut, Chilly’s, Monzo Bank, Unum and Starling Bank. Strategically, they’re the perfect anchor firm for us to launch into the digital and tech space. ⚓️ Culturally, they fit like a glove too. As we target growth to £250m turnover in 12 months, this is a cracking way to take another massive stride forward. ⏭️ It’s wonderful to welcome CEO Edward Rowland, COO Tony Di Carlo and all the talented Cloud Orca team on board.
