Bostock will remain with the company as a partner to ensure a smooth transition.
Bostock said: “I have been very fortunate and appreciative to have had the opportunity to lead this firm.
“I thank all our partners and people, present and past, for their hard work, contribution, support and dedication; it is something I will always cherish and value.
“Our firm is well-positioned for the future, and I am truly delighted to welcome and commit my support to Mitesh as our new chief executive to lead us forward and build on the strong market presence Crowe has today.”
Patelia joined Crowe in 2008 and became a Corporate Finance partner in 2017. He later took on the role of advisory head and has also chaired the supervisory board.
Patelia said: “I am honoured to have been appointed to lead the firm. I have seen Crowe grow and evolve immeasurably over the years.
“That progress is a direct result of the talent, dedication and commitment of our people and the exceptional teams we have. I look forward to working with each of them as we continue to build on our firm’s success.
“I would like to thank Nigel for his steadfast leadership during a period of considerable change in the profession.”
Last month, Crowe UK promoted Ben Carter and Charlie Copp to partners positions.
Carter became a partner in the company’s Professional Practices team, while Copp was elevated to a partner role in the Corporate Finance team.
