Our History Spencer Watson: Establishes his own practice March, 1998 Spencer Watson, our managing director and founder, began working in the world of chartered accountancy back in the 1980s. Having obtained his Chartered Accountancy qualifications and having worked for successful local firms for many years, his ambition to succeed drove him to begin his own practice journey in 1998. Acquistion: Brian Buckley Accountants November, 1998 Spencer's first acquisition was of Brian Buckley in 1998, forming the basis of our firm today as 'Buckley Watson'. Brian had himself been practicing as an accountant since 1972. Accountants have therefore been trading at our Leigh-on-Sea office, 57a Broadway, for over 50 years. Acquisition: Haydens Accountants March, 2003 In March of 2003, Buckley Watson acquired a portfolio of clients from Ralph Hayden, who was based in Hullbridge. Ralph stayed with the firm for a few short years before enjoying his retirement abroad. Acquisition: Tomlyns Accountants August, 2012 Based in Brentwood, Essex, Buckley Watson acquired Tomlyns Limited and at the same time moved from our offices upstairs to the first floor, to accommodate the ever growing firm, to where we are today. Phil Osborn (the founder and director of Tomlyns) still works alongside the firm today as a consultant. Acquisition: Accounting Kiwi Chartered Accountants November, 2020 Buckley Watson acquired the Rayleigh based Chartered Accounting firm, Accounting Kiwi. The practice is long established with a property based focus and the original partner Mike Slade and his step-daughter Tabby Mote both still work with the firm today. Sean Tierney: Becomes an equity partner July, 2021 After joining the firm in 2018 and progressing to equity partner, Sean Tierney has successfully built and continues to expand his portfolio of clients using expertise gained from working within local, well-established accountancy practices for the last 14 years. His leadership qualities have been pivotal in creating the valuable firm unity we possess today and have aided the establishment of a quality team of professionals that now work at and represent Buckley Watson. Acquisiton: Masons Chartered Accountants July, 2022 Masons Chartered Accountants was acquired by Buckley Watson in July 2022, and with the team relocating to our Leigh-on-Sea office along with the original partners of Masons remaining involved as Consultants, the original Mason's office based in Hadleigh was closed. Bob Bye, Steve Barker and David Seymour still work alongside the firm today as consultants. Julia Edwards: Becomes an equity partner August, 2022 Julia Edwards joined the firm in 2021 before becoming an equity partner of Buckley Watson Limited in August of 2022. After working locally in chartered practices throughout her career and obtaining her Chartered Accountancy & Licensed Practitioner Certificates along the way, Julia started her own accountancy practice. She has brought a fresh perspective and enthusiasm to the profession, and since joining Buckley Watson has continued to grow her existing portfolio, fostering strong, collaborative relationships with clients. Acquisiton: Spencer Fellows & Co Chartered Accountants August, 2023 Based in Chelmsford, Essex, and originally established in 1944, Spencer Fellows & Co are a chartered firm with specialist expertise in the agricultural sector.

Our History Spencer Watson: Establishes his own practice March, 1998 Spencer Watson, our managing director and founder, began working in the world of chartered accountancy back in the 1980s. Having obtained his Chartered Accountancy qualifications and having worked for successful local firms for many years, his ambition to succeed drove him to begin his own practice journey in 1998. Acquistion: Brian Buckley Accountants November, 1998 Spencer's first acquisition was of Brian Buckley in 1998, forming the basis of our firm today as 'Buckley Watson'. Brian had himself been practicing as an accountant since 1972. Accountants have therefore been trading at our Leigh-on-Sea office, 57a Broadway, for over 50 years. Acquisition: Haydens Accountants March, 2003 In March of 2003, Buckley Watson acquired a portfolio of clients from Ralph Hayden, who was based in Hullbridge. Ralph stayed with the firm for a few short years before enjoying his retirement abroad. Acquisition: Tomlyns Accountants August, 2012 Based in Brentwood, Essex, Buckley Watson acquired Tomlyns Limited and at the same time moved from our offices upstairs to the first floor, to accommodate the ever growing firm, to where we are today. Phil Osborn (the founder and director of Tomlyns) still works alongside the firm today as a consultant.

His leadership qualities have been pivotal in creating the valuable firm unity we possess today and have aided the establishment of a quality team of professionals that now work at and represent Buckley Watson. Acquisiton: Masons Chartered Accountants July, 2022 Masons Chartered Accountants was acquired by Buckley Watson in July 2022, and with the team relocating to our Leigh-on-Sea office along with the original partners of Masons remaining involved as Consultants, the original Mason's office based in Hadleigh was closed. Bob Bye, Steve Barker and David Seymour still work alongside the firm today as consultants. Julia Edwards: Becomes an equity partner August, 2022 Julia Edwards joined the firm in 2021 before becoming an equity partner of Buckley Watson Limited in August of 2022. After working locally in chartered practices throughout her career and obtaining her Chartered Accountancy & Licensed Practitioner Certificates along the way, Julia started her own accountancy practice. She has brought a fresh perspective and enthusiasm to the profession, and since joining Buckley Watson has continued to grow her existing portfolio, fostering strong, collaborative relationships with clients. Acquisiton: Spencer Fellows & Co Chartered Accountants August, 2023 Based in Chelmsford, Essex, and originally established in 1944, Spencer Fellows & Co are a chartered firm with specialist expertise in the agricultural sector.
