Blue Sky Thinking: Accountancy Firm Continues To Excel With Recent Award

July has been a successful month for the region’s accountancy firms, and one of its shining independent lights has celebrated yet another success at the NE Accountancy Awards.

For the second year in a row, Blu Sky has won the Independent Firm of the Year, highlighting an exceptional 12 months of achievement including a 30% growth, nurturing and developing an outstanding team environment and a national expansion supported by the launch of the company’s own forecasting and reporting product, Blu Prints.

Blu Sky has said that it differentiates itself by providing bespoke packages to each client, and looking after and supporting them through every aspect of the customer journey.

Jon Dudgeon, co-founder, who was on holiday and watched the recent awards ceremony live through twitter and Youtube, commented that on the judging day Blu Sky branded hoodies and a Skype attendee in co-founder Dave Gibson clearly demonstrated the laid-back but tech-savvy culture of Blu Sky and underpinned the quality of our innovative service culture.

Blu Sky has it is committed to nurturing talent from within and have said that a healthy work/life balance is one of the best benefits a company can provide.

Last year, Blu Sky were also crowned Small Accountancy Firm of the Year. Taking it a step further and being up against the likes of larger firms and still to win proves what the team said last year, that they still had work to do to get to where they want to be.

12 months later, and positive steps are being made; being recognised for those has boosted the team morale to an even higher state.

Of the Awards Evening, Co-founder Dave said: “It was a very special night to cap a very special year. It was particularly pleasing to win for a second year in succession against a short list of high quality competition.

“The credit goes to a close knit team who have rolled their sleeves up and relentlessly attacked every challenge and opportunity with gusto.”
