Cooper Parry grows audit operations in London and South

Audit and tax firm Cooper Parry has increased its audit operations in London and the South, expanding its team and strengthening expertise.

The firm has a national audit team of 800, with 230 professionals now working in London and the South.

Recent changes include the arrival of Sarah Harries as audit director.

Harries joined the firm from BDO UK in September, bringing experience in auditing law firms and partnership structures.

She is knowledgeable in areas such as the UK GAAP, Solicitors Accounts Rules and the LLP SORP, and is involved in supporting professional services clients with regulatory compliance.

Harries also works alongside colleagues handling tax compliance and account preparation.

Harries said: “Joining Cooper Parry felt like the perfect move in my career. I’m passionate about helping professional service firms operate with clarity, confidence, and impact and CP’s bold, innovative approach really resonates with me.

“I’m excited to bring my experience to a team that’s growing fast and reshaping the future of audit across the South.”

Another development within the team includes Callum Henderson’s promotion to Audit Director for Tech & High Growth. Henderson has been with Cooper Parry for 18 months.

Sakina Rashid has also been identified as a key member of the audit team for the South, having joined Cooper Parry a year ago.

Rashid continues to contribute to client service delivery across the region.

Cooper Parry partner and Audit regional head Gary Staunton stated: “We know growing businesses don’t just want an auditor who ticks boxes. They want a partner who understands their business, hits deadlines, and prioritises their audit.

“That’s exactly what we’re building in the South – a team of ambitious specialists who combine technical excellence with fresh thinking. Underpinned by Cooper Parry’s culture of innovation, we’re here to add real value, not just compliance.”
