Jonathon Williamson

I joined the accounting profession with Ashgates, now DJH Derby, 18 years ago and qualified in 2012. I was proud to become Director in 2024.

My role is varied and rewarding, combining a portfolio of corporate clients with specialist work supporting sports professionals and their commercial opportunities. I also lead our office’s project work, helping to deliver bespoke solutions across a range of client needs.

Since starting in the profession in 2007, I’ve gained extensive experience across compliance and advisory services, including company sales, acquisitions, management buyouts (MBOs), and finance raising. This broad background enables me to offer clients a well-rounded and joined-up service.

Whether I’m helping a business grow, advising on a transaction, or supporting a company or individual with their financial affairs, my focus is always on providing clear, practical advice in a friendly and client-focused way. No two days, or clients, are the same, and that provides a rewarding challenge. There is no better feeling than helping clients achieve their goals.

• What makes DJH great is…

  We care about our clients and the service we deliver. We pride ourselves on working as a team to provide a high quality personal service and always being on hand to help and deliver the best outcomes for our clients.

• My most trusted piece of advice in business is…

  When you need it, seek council from those you trust – once you’ve made a decision, commit to it and execute with confidence.

• On a Saturday morning you'll usually find me...

  Playing cricket in the summer – hoping the body holds up. In the winter I’ll be watching football and spending time with friends and family and planning our travels – in particular trips to the mountains.
