BlueRock adds Arthur Advisory to accounting team
The Melbourne firm chalks up another acquisition as it mulls expansion interstate.
Melbourne advisory firm BlueRock has added another acquisition to its accounting division in Brunswick-based Arthur Advisory, hot on the heels of its takeover of the dnm group last month.
Arthur Advisory director Ricky Jessop, pictured left, returns to BlueRock after running his own advisory business for five years specialising in e-commerce, digital and high-growth start ups.
Previously an accountant at BlueRock, Mr Jessop said the partnership was an opportunity to use BlueRock’s multidisciplinary approach to help Arthur Advisory customers.
BlueRock managing director of accounting Bevan McLeod, pictured right, said the merger was pivotal for the firm’s growth.
“As a great mentor to emerging and high-growth businesses, Ricky is well versed on working with founders to build successful businesses and brings with him a client base that aligns really well with our existing clients,” he said.
“The merger will also provide the opportunity to grow our business advisory service model and how that will integrate with other areas of our business”.
BlueRock said its Melbourne footprint had grown significantly across all products and services, with more than 320 staff, and it was now working to expand into other major cities supported by its acquisitions strategy and organic growth. Broadbent Financial was another recent acquisition.
BlueRock is an integrated advisory firm offering professional services for businesses and individuals, including accounting, wealth, finance, law and digital.
