The Yorkshire Accountancy Awards 2025 is
taking place on 27 February!

Shortlist coming soon

Welcome to
the Yorkshire Accountancy Awards

The Yorkshire Accountancy Awards celebrates Yorkshire’s outstanding accountants and firms. From outstanding trainees to managing partners of accountancy firms, we’re getting ready to celebrate the successes of those organisations, teams and individuals who have excelled right here in God’s own county.

Our categories are designed to recognise the entire profession, from small independent and mid-tier firms to the Big Four, while also offering a wide range of individual and team awards–all with a view to enabling the very best of regional practice to be scrutinised, recognised and rewarded.

An independent panel of local and national experts from the profession judge the awards every year, culminating in a black-tie ceremony and dinner, held in Leeds, where the finalists meet, network and celebrate as a local profession.
