Forvis Mazars opens new office in Bristol to support its expanding presence in the region

Forvis Mazars, a leading global professional services network, has officially moved to its new Bristol city centre office location in the Assembly Campus. All team members who were based at the current Victoria Street office have now relocated to the new office in Assembly Building C, effective from 19 May 2025.

The move has been made with the long-term goal of relocating to a more sustainable and modern office, which can accommodate the growing team, enabling the firm to continue to offer clients the highest quality of service.

The new office at the Assembly Bristol Campus has improved sustainability standards, with the building achieving the BREEAM excellent standard, putting it in the top 10% of commercial office buildings for sustainability in the UK. In addition, in line with Forvis Mazars’ sustainability strategy, building C is focused on reducing carbon emissions, with its life cycle carbon predicted to be 34% lower than typical new build offices. The building will also better facilitate a more collaborative and hybrid way of working, allowing people to move around the campus depending on what they are working on, facilitating the firm’s modern way of working.

Jon Marchant, Bristol Office Managing Partner, said: “Relocating to Assembly represents an exciting new chapter for our team as we continue to expand our presence in the region. This move reflects our ongoing commitment to providing exceptional client service. It allows us to embrace more sustainable, flexible ways of working, while also helping us to reduce our impact on the city and wider environment. We’re looking forward to the opportunities this new space brings and are confident we’ll enjoy many successes here.”

This relocation follows a period of significant success for the team in Bristol, which recently announced another year of double-digit growth across its service lines as it continues to expand its offering to mid-market clients and public interest entities. To support this growth, headcount has increased by more than 30 people over the last year, with the firm now employing over 100 staff members in the city.

Jon Marchant was also recently appointed as Office Managing Partner for Bristol. In addition to managing the wider team and maintaining growth across all service lines, Jon will be focusing on growing the firm’s mid-market and public interest entity audit offering, as well as expanding its private client services, in the region.
