Infinity has been nominated in the Client Service Award and Tax Team of the Year categories. In addition, the firm’s senior accounts associate, Chloe Leslie, has reached the last stage of the Rising Star of the Year award category.
Simon Cowie, managing partner at Infinity Partnership, said: “The Accounting Excellence Awards are one of the most prestigious for UK accountancy firms, so we are therefore delighted to be shortlisted in three categories.
“All of our teams have worked extremely hard over the past 18 months and the client service nomination is well deserved. Our tax team has consistently grown in recent years and played a significant role in our success.
“I’m also thrilled that Chloe has been shortlisted. She is a key member of the team and we are all delighted that her hard work and dedication has been recognised with this nomination.”
Infinity Partnership, which has made a six-figure investment in cloud-based accountancy solutions and software such as Xero, set up a Covid-19 online hub within 48 hours of the pandemic being recognised as a national emergency. This effort was to support clients and other businesses with the latest information to help them get though the pandemic.
In July this year, the firm was recognised by global software business Sage, when it was named Accounting Practice of the Year at the 2021 Sage Impact Awards.
The winners of the Accounting Excellence awards will be announced at a ceremony at The Brewery in London on Thursday, October 21 (2021).
Infinity won Small Practice of the Year at the 2018 Accounting Excellence Awards and won five times in a row in various categories at the British Accountancy Awards from 2015 through to when the awards were last held in 2019.
Infinity, which has a UK-wide client base, is recognised for its accountancy, research and development tax relief, mergers and acquisitions and corporate finance expertise. The majority of its clients are connected to the energy sector in the Aberdeen area.
The practice was founded in 2011 by Simon, a two-time Scottish Dealmaker of the Year who has completed more than 80 deals worth more than £250m in total. Infinity has made R&D tax credit claims of more than £200m on behalf of clients in the past four years.
