History
editNixon Williams was founded in 1995 by Alan Williams and Andy Nixon in Chorley.[5] The firm was set up with the view of serving professionals and expanded as the firm started to acquire more clients nationwide via word-of-mouth.[6]
After 19 years at the organisation, both founders stepped down when the business was acquired by Sovereign Capital, a specialist UK private equity firm. Andy Nixon and Alan Williams have since invested in a new practice, Alchemy Accountancy, which was launched in 2018.[7]
In 2017 Nixon Williams became a brand within the Optionis group.[8][9]
