Founded in 1906, Critchleys is Oxford’s leading firm of accountants and business advisers, with a professional and friendly culture. Over a century later, our goal remains the same: to care and help people prosper.

We are forward thinking and provide a full range of professional services including accounting, audit, bookkeeping, payroll management, HR advice, and personal and business tax planning to our substantial, growing and diverse client base of businesses, charities and individuals.

We have a skilled team of people at all levels in whom we place great value and are strong investors in our people. The Firm has a reputation for technical excellence, training and development, and delivering a responsive service to our clients, and we aim to ensure our workplace is a happy and rewarding environment for everyone. One way we achieve this is by helping our colleagues to develop and reach their full potential through professional qualifications, practical learning and career progression.

We always seek to offer truly genuine colleague benefits, including private healthcare which started as an employee suggestion via the Critchleys Staff Voice forum. We also host a variety of team and firm-wide social events, in particular our much-anticipated Summer and Christmas parties, which have included visiting Ascot Races, Black-Tie meals at Oxford University Colleges, pizza-making sessions and quiz nights.

Each year, we ask our team to decide our charity of the year. This year, we’re really proud to support Maggie’s Oxford who provide free cancer support and information in our local community, and throughout the year we will hold a range of sponsored events as a group and individually.

Based in the heart of the city centre, our offices are close to train and bus links and offers our staff a fresh, modern and inspiring environment to work in.
