Xeinadin grows London footprint with CDJ deal

An accountancy and business advisory firm is set to expand its SME support following a takeover.

Xeinadin has bought Cooper Dawn Jerrom (CDJ), a West London-based firm known for advisory services covering audit, accountancy, payroll, tax, VAT, probate and estate guidance. 

Bosses say the deal gives CDJ clients immediate access to Xeinadin’s cloud-first tools and wider advisory services, while retaining their trusted local team. 

They add that by combining Xeinadin’s scale with CDJ’s local expertise to drive long-term growth, resilience and practical guidance for SMEs, it will strengthen support for businesses navigating rising costs, staffing pressures and regulatory changes.

Derry Crowley, chief executive of Xeinadin, said: “CDJ represents exactly the type of practice we want to welcome into Xeinadin; grounded in their community, trusted by clients, and forward-thinking in how they respond to today’s business landscape. 

“This acquisition strengthens our London footprint and expands our expertise in key trading sectors.” 

In a joint statement, Michael Amos, Shama Meghjee-Caine and Keith Ward, the partners at CDJ, added: “After speaking with a number of practices, it was clear Xeinadin was different and that they spoke our language. 

“For us, it wasn’t just about the numbers. 

“We wanted continuity for our staff and clients, but also a partner who understood the demands of accountants today; from AI and compliance, to culture and client trust.

“Xeinadin already had the infrastructure we were looking for, and importantly, shares our values.”
