BR Accountants LTD is preparing for a significant year in 2026 as its client base moves close to 10,000 and the firm plans to increase its staffing levels by 20 per cent in the opening quarter.
The practice, founded in 2008 by Rodion Batir and now managed by Ilie Batir from its East London head office, has built a strong reputation within the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS).
More than 80 per cent of its clients operate in construction, a focus that has enabled the firm to develop specialist knowledge and support businesses across the UK, from London to the Shetland Islands.
CIS expertise remains central to its services, supported by many years of sector experience.
“Having this knowledge of CIS is not something you can buy. I have been working with the Construction sector for nearly 20 years,” Ilie Batir said.
In addition to its construction work, the firm advises a range of other clients, including retail businesses, beauty salons and those in the film sector, providing a broader commercial base.
Ilie Batir highlighted the importance of maintaining a physical office alongside digital operations.
“We are based in London, and we keep a head office to meet clients, to give them that chance because a lot, if not all, accountancy work can be done online. That is something my brother found out during COVID, and he now does that in Spain. However, we do have an office presence for the people who want that option. We really have clients all over, from London to the Shetlands in the UK and beyond.”
The forthcoming expansion in staffing is intended to support rising demand and continued growth.
“2026 is going to be a record-breaking one for us, and we are very happy to be moving onto next levels,” Ilie Batir added.
As the firm nears the 10,000-client milestone, it continues to position itself as a specialist adviser to the UK construction industry.
