Dublin and Cork based firm Roberts Nathan, a prominent accountancy and advisory firm in Ireland, has today merged with the UK-based MHA accountancy firm to form Baker Tilly Ireland.
All staff are being retained and Baker Tilly Ireland plans to create 100 new jobs alongside this exciting development as part of its expansion strategy.
MHA is the UK's thirteenth largest accountancy group and Baker Tilly International's UK member. This merger combines Roberts Nathan's extensive local expertise with a strong international presence, significantly enhancing the firm’s capability to offer a more robust and comprehensive range of services and sector expertise and serve a broader client base in Ireland and globally.
Vivian Nathan, Baker Tilly Ireland's new Regional Chief Operations Officer, and previous Managing Partner of Roberts Nathan comments:
This proposed merger marks a pivotal milestone, enabling us to leverage our combined strengths to provide more extensive services and innovative solutions to our clients while creating significant growth opportunities for our team.”
Rakesh Shaunak, Managing Partner and Chairman of MHA comments:
Expanding into Ireland is a significant step in MHA’s strategic growth plans due to its strong trading ties and business connections with the UK and Europe. Our focus will remain on supporting the local and international SMEs, plus growing the OMB client base enabling them to take advantage of the international footprint of BTI, and also allowing our UK clients new opportunities into the Irish Market. Roberts Nathan’s growth mindset, entrepreneurial spirit and highly personal ethos aligns with MHA’s perfectly."
The 100 new roles will range from graduates to experienced professionals in Dublin and Cork, with hybrid working options over the next two years. These positions will span audit, advisory, and tax services, reflecting Baker Tilly Ireland’s commitment to driving economic growth and offering high-quality employment opportunities in Ireland.
