Price Bailey announces five new Partner level appointments 

Price Bailey announces the successful appointment of five senior team members who will move into the firm’s Partner team, including two external appointments and three internal promotions.

This comes following the appointment of Matt Leggett, who joined Price Bailey through the acquisition of External Accounts Ltd back in November 2025, a move that expanded the firm’s presence across Norwich and Great Yarmouth. The new appointments bring the Price Bailey Partnership team to a total of 51. 

Bryn Anderson joins as Partner in the Strategic Corporate Finance team, bringing specialist expertise in valuations. Bryn has particular expertise in the sports sector and in the valuation of brands and intellectual property, supporting strategic business and IP decision-making. 

Anthony Davies joins as Partner in the Tax team, adding further technical depth to the firm’s tax advisory team. His experience includes M&A, tax due diligence and business restructurings. He also advises clients on a broad range of UK and cross-border tax matters, including exit planning and the practical application of double tax treaties. 

A longstanding member of the firm, Karen Buttrey, who first joined Price Bailey in 2000, is promoted to Partner within the Finance team. Her appointment reflects her enduring contribution and deep operational knowledge developed over 26 years within the business. 

Stella Athanasiadou is promoted to Partner in the Audit & Assurance team. Stella joined Price Bailey as a trainee in 2015 and has since become a trusted specialist supporting a wide portfolio of clients. Stella specialises in delivering audit services to large companies and complex groups, with a particular focus on the retail and manufacturing sectors. 

Stephan Schmitt is also promoted to Partner in the Audit & Assurance team. Stephan joined the firm in 2017 and has specialist expertise working with UK subsidiaries of international groups, alongside UK based international groups. 

Martin Clapson, Managing Director at Price Bailey, comments:

Our Partnership team plays a central role in the delivery of our exceptional service to our clients and the development of our people, so these appointments mark an important milestone. Each new Partner brings valuable experience and perspective, and we are pleased to recognise both long‑standing colleagues and talented new joiners.
