Acquisitive East Midlands accountancy firm snaps up London-based business

Cooper Parry has exchanged on the acquisition of London-based Cloud Orca – the Salesforce consultancy.  

It’s the East Midlands accountancy firm’s eighth deal in the last 16 months, as it targets £250m turnover by 2025. 

Cloud Orca’s 55-strong highly certified team is co-located in London and the Philippines. The firm’s impressive client roster includes Revolut, Starling Bank, Monzo Bank, Unum and Chilly’s.

Ade Cheatham, Cooper Parry CEO, said: “This Cloud Orca deal is a massive leap forward in our tech offering. It ticks tons of the right boxes: market reputation, powerful culture, huge growth, and a passion for sustainability. The fit is spot on.

“As we create the UK’s next-gen accountancy firm, the landing of such an impressive anchor firm in the digital and tech space is brilliant news. What a way to start the new financial year! And the great thing is, there’s plenty more on the horizon.” 

Ed Rowland, Cloud Orca CEO, said: “Our business was founded on simple, powerful, meaningful values. We’re here to deliver the right tech for dynamic businesses to be more effective, profitable and successful. With Cooper Parry, we’ve found a firm which shares our ambitions in the mid-market space.”
