* Dates and timings are subject to change, please check directly with the awards organisers.

The official Accounting Excellence Awards 2026 winners list is published, following awards night on 29 September 2026 at The Roundhouse, London.

Recognition belongs to the people behind the work, not just the name on the trophy. If your firm or colleague appears on the list, make time to celebrate the contribution that got you there.

Selected Winners

The organiser's results include:

  • Small Firm of the Year – 1-10 employees: Writers Tax.
  • Large Firm of the Year: AAB.
  • Finance Digital Transformation Award: Hall Morrice LLP.
  • Practice Digital Transformation Award: ACE-XL.
  • John Stokdyk Outstanding Contribution Award: Emma Rawson.

This is a selection, not the complete roll of honour. The official page also lists other category winners and separately identifies Silver and Bronze recipients. Check the exact category and distinction before sharing a result.

Make the Recognition Count

Start with your team. Thank the people who delivered the work and the clients who trusted you with it. Then agree how you will share the news: a clear website update, a personal message to clients or a story about the people behind the achievement.

Be precise. Name the award, category and year, and follow the organiser's guidance for any winner assets you use. If your story involves a client, get permission before publishing their information.

Use the Results to Plan Your Next Entry

For firms planning a future submission, the results are a research starting point, not a template to copy. A winner's name alone does not explain the judges' reasoning or reveal the entry they assessed.

Run in the right race: identify the category that matches your strongest proven work. Build a Problem, Solution, Result case study, with measurable outcomes and a client or colleague's perspective, used with permission. Strong evidence makes a stronger entry than an impressive claim.

For a practical framework, read Crafting Winning Awards Entries. Check the organiser's current guidance when planning a future edition; these are the 2026 results, not an announcement that the next entry window is open.
