Campbell Dallas is a leading firm of independent Chartered Accountants in Scotland.
Campbell Dallas was formed in 1999 with the merge of Campbell & Co of Bearsden & Paisley and Dallas Nicoll & Co of Paisley. More acquisitions followed: in 2003, they acquired Reeves & Neylan Chartered Accountants of Perth, in 2005 they acquired MacMillan Chartered Accountants of Glasgow, in 2006 MacPherson & Company of Aberdeen [2] and in 2016 W White & Co of Kilmarnock.[3]
The firm has 21 partners and over 200 staff operating from 5 locations across Scotland; Aberdeen, Glasgow, Kilmarnock, Perth, and Stirling. It is 8th largest Scottish firm and in the top 55 in the UK.[4]
Awards
Campbell Dallas is Scotland’s Accountancy Firm of the Year 2016 and 2015 [5] and award holders of the Training Team of the Year. They are currently ranked as one of the Top Five Scottish Accountancy firms[6] and scooped up Corporate Finance Team of the Year and Restructuring Team of the Year at the Scottish Accountancy and Finance Awards, 2016. They were also a finalist in the Tolley Tax Awards for Best Tax Practice in a Regional Firm 2016.[7] Campbell Dallas is a member of UHY Hacker Young, an alliance of firms with offices throughout the UK. Membership extends to UHY International with representation in over 70 countries worldwide.
Sustainability
In December 2015 the roof of their Glasgow office was kitted out with 300 solar panels to harness clean and renewable energy to help power the office. In April 2017 they acquired two electric cars [8] which staff can use for business travel. The solar panels in one year produced enough green energy to drive a company BMW i3 nearly ten times around the world – or 250,000 miles.[9] The investment in electric vehicles and solar panels is a core part of the firm’s desire to place sustainability at the heart of its corporate culture.
Investing in people
Campbell Dallas is an ICAS approved training provider, an ACCA Platinum Level Accredited Training Firm and an AAT Accredited Employer. They hold the Investors in Young People Gold Accreditation,[10] which recognises the importance the firm places on the recruitment, retention and development of young people.
